Rhino attacks vehicle

Join me on an extraordinary wildlife adventure in the Sabi Sands during the lockdown. In this Sony Alpha wildlife photography series, I had the opportunity to explore the deserted reserves, capturing mesmerising moments with the majestic creatures that roam freely. Little did I know, however, that my encounter with a seemingly peaceful white rhino bull would take an unexpected turn, putting my many years of experience to the ultimate test.
As I focused my lens on the tranquil rhino bull, little did I anticipate the sudden shift in its behaviour when I started the car and began to reverse. Without any warning, the peaceful atmosphere shattered, and the rhino charged towards me, triggering a wild chase that lasted for about a kilometer. With my camera shaken loose on its mount, capturing the rhino's shadow as I stopped to face off the charge.
Feel the adrenaline rush as I recount the intense moments when I found myself manoeuvring through the bush, off-road, and in reverse to avoid a powerful rhino collision. The limited space pushed me to confront the immense challenge head-on, as I fought back against the charging beast, my camera trembling in my hands. Witness the gripping visuals of his shadow looming over me, serving as a stark reminder of the danger I faced in that life-or-death struggle.
Stay on the edge of your seat as I describe how, after what felt like an eternity, I managed to create enough distance between us, eventually breaking free from the relentless pursuit. Experience the palpable relief as I share the triumphant moment of finally evading the rhino's charge, my shaken camera capturing the victorious escape.
This unforgettable encounter taught me valuable lessons about the untamed nature of wildlife photography and the unpredictable behaviour of these majestic creatures. Join me on this gripping journey as we delve into the exhilarating highs and nerve-wracking challenges faced by wildlife photographers in the pursuit of capturing nature's raw beauty.
