Baby Fox Takes On Pride Of Lions And Survives

As he saw the awful events transpire in front of him, he felt his heart hammering in his chest. An unlikely hero swooped in just as the dominant male lion was going to be a hair away from the scared fox, stopping the events that Daniel was about to witness.

She intervened in the same way that a mother would. However, the alpha male’s focus shifted to the fox’s protector. He stood there watching her snarl back at the arrogant lion. He was well aware that there was no turning back.

Wildlife Enthusiast

Daniel Mokoena was a nature and wildlife enthusiast. After putting in a lot of effort, he eventually achieved his aims and applied for his ideal job as a wildlife ranger. He received word shortly after that he had been hired at the Kalahari Game Reserve.

He got right to work and proudly wore the uniform as he learned how things worked and became acquainted with the game reserve. But if he had known what would happen on the path one day, he might have reassessed his choice of profession.

Humble Beginnings

Daniel’s love for animals began when he was a child. He was orphaned at the age of ten, struggling to cope with the isolation that came with it. He discovered a stray dog to keep him company during this period.

He’d frequently feed any leftovers he could scavenge from the orphanage to the stray dog. Day after day, the dog came back to see him.

Moving Forward

Despite his difficult childhood, he sought to put it behind him. He was inspired to transform his love of animals into a career route he could follow for as long as possible. He was overjoyed when he first landed the job at the Kalahari Game Reserve.

Daniel was eager to learn whatever he could about the reserve’s wildlife. He observed their activities and developed a liking for the bat-eared foxes that frequented the region. However, what he would witness one day would make him rethink his entire career.

The Usual

Daniel got up and went about his business on a sunny Tuesday morning. Before leaving his room, he showered, drank coffee, and brushed his teeth before venturing out into the great wilderness that surrounded him.

He made his way to the front desk to meet the tour guide and the group who would be on the trip that day. He loved watching ordinary folks see what he saw on a daily basis. Today, though, would be a far cry from the usual.
