In the clip the Afrikaans woman is heard trying to chase the eland out of her home; however, it is seen blatantly ignoring her.

Watch the video below:

According to African Wildlife Foundation, the eland is the world's largest antelope. However, it has the endurance to maintain a trot indefinitely and can jump a 1.5 meter (4 feet) fence from a standstill. Both males and females have horns that spiral tightly, though female horns tend to be longer and thinner.

Lion charges at children at zoo

In another story, YEN.com.gh reported that a barrier fence separated two children and a few spectators at the zoo from a lion who had an unexpected wild moment of mistaking them for prey.

A video posted on TikTok shows a lion observing two children closely before charging at them. Unfortunately, what happened afterwards is unknown as the cameraman responsible for capturing the moment ran away in fear.

Lions in a zoo can be dangerous, even if they are well-trained and cared for. After all, they are wild animals and can still be unpredictable.
