Rhino charges at safari vehicle, keeps running behind car
The video of a rhino charging and running behind a tourist vehicle was posted on Instagram.
The videos that show wild animals charging at tourist vehicles are always scary to watch. One such video was posted on Instagram that shows a rhino running behind a safari car for quite a few minutes. Originally posted by Instagram user Anastasia Chapman, the video intrigued people after being re-shared on the official Insta page of Latest Sightings.
“Had the craziest experience with a temperamental rhino yesterday. He charged at us full speed for over a kilometre, barreling at us for 3-4 mins straight. Our guide was driving as fast as he could through the extremely muddy and unstable roads to get us out safely. This behaviour definitely isn’t normal and our guide said it was one of his top 5 most dangerous animal encounters to date. Absolute insane day in nature and a reminder that we are only guests in these animals' homes and territories,” Chapman wrote while sharing the video last month.
