Pawing and clawing up the beest's body, the lion gets close to the snack. SOUTH AFRICA: A LIONESS was pictured as it caught a three-hundred-pound wildebeest by the neck and snapped its spine in two. Intense photos showed the 230-pound lioness in a staring stand-off with the female wildebeest before a chase ensued. Another image captured the lioness as it clawed up the body of the almost six-foot-long wildebeest and clasped on to its neck before taking it down with a thud. Photographer, Rudi Zisterer (57) from Baden-Württemberg, Germany, snapped the hunt at Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, South Africa. Rudi used a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV to capture the thrilling encounter which lasted ten minutes. The German, who was just 16 feet from the action, first visited Africa in 1990. mediadrumworld.com/@zistos/RudiZisterer
