Yes she sort of takes it as her own, in the past it didn't last long then the bokkie left as the Zebra had no milk, but now she has a foal of her own so the baby stayed, the mother left :shock:

Watch the heart-stopping moment a large herd of 100+ buffalo gang up on 2 lions, killing the one. All while a leopard watches in the background!

This extremely rare sighting was seen 2 days ago at Mestel Dam, near Pretoriuskop.
Tinged by Kyle Mills.

Strange that the serval did not run away earlier. Maybe it does not know that it is much smaller than the cheetah lol Cheetahs are really cowards =O:
