Here is the video. The zebra bites around 1:00.

Hm it's not a fake picture apparently but the situation is definitely not as implied.

Thanks for sharing!

Did expect: self defense. Did not expect: eventually the croc wins, also all the other zebras just walking by.

About the walking by, nice example how safety in numbers works. One can cover the others.

crocs are damn scary. They once ripped off an oar from our boat...freaking scary ass moment. Dad chased it off with the other oar. If Jurassic Park were real, crocs are a glimpse of that.

What's crazy to me is that the zebra seems to display no emotion at all while the crocodile literally rips its leg off.
