Zebra at the River- Masai Mara, Kenya

Zebra quenching their thirst with Mara River Water. As alert as they appear to be, a crocodile can swim within meters undetected, exposing only eyes and nostrils. One would think that evolutionary pressures over the millennia would equip zebra & other wildlife with the ability to detect approaching crocs, but apparently not! Crocs rarely attack full grown zebra, but their young are fair game....
