Viral Video: Mother Giraffe drives away hyena to save her calf

The caption of the video reads, “Mother giraffe protects her baby from hyena.”

There’s an old saying that a mother will do anything for her child, and a new popular wildlife video has once again demonstrated it. The video demonstrates the strong protective instincts of a mother giraffe.

In the video, a giraffe is seen standing with its child. She makes every effort to keep the calf safe. So when the hyena tries to get close, she shoos him away.

The mother giraffe’s aggressive move startled the carnivore, who immediately backed away.

The video is getting a lot of reactions online from social media users.

One user commented, “I have seen deer behaving like this when their babies feel threatened.”

Another user wrote, “This is how a mother should protect her child – whether inside or outside the womb.”

“I learned that giraffes can be very dangerous when threatened – downright aggressive. At the San Diego Wildlife Sanctuary, a giraffe very badly injured a rhinoceros when it went after her baby. Mothers in any situation Depend too much on the aggression of her children. That’s what a mother’s job is,” commented a third user.
