Topi is one of the smartest antelopes in the African Savannah that most predators find it challenging to catch. They have extremely good eyesight and spend most of the days grazing facing each direction and also climbing on top of ant hills to have a better vantage point of their surroundings.
They also are very fast with great stamina that most predators can't stand and so most predators like lions are most likely to hunt topis at night to take advantage of their poor eyesight in the dark and that's where lions get successful hunting topi but this week in Maasai Mara near Olkiombo something extraordinary happened.
There was a topi grazing near a little bush and no one really paid attention because there was nothing unusual about it, there are millions of grazers in the Mara after all but within a flash of a second a lioness popped out of nowhere and jumped on the topi's back and went straight for the head bringing the huge antelope down and just before anyone could take in what's happening another female lion flew from across the road and within seconds was there helping the other female lioness and just within minutes it was all over and it just happened so fast that the best footage we could get is this!
