Fair warning: nobody was hurt in the following video, even though no one obeyed the number one rule when observing wildlife – do not approach the animals.

In this case, a young boy of about 11 or 12 was singled out from among a crowd of curious adolescent visitors and chased for a few seconds. He was lucky he didn’t slip and fall or we wouldn’t be showing you this video.

If you’re really curious what a large, wild beast looks like up close, we recommend using a camera or binoculars.
