Paul says : "Often it is the minnows, the underdogs, that deserve our praise more than the A-list. Injured and abandoned, a lone wildebeest fawn tottered up and down a stinking pool. This foot of water was the only respite from the attentions of three young lions...
"Finally with hunger overcoming feline fear of water, a medium sized female closed in...
" The inevitable coup de grace surely lay ahead...
"Moments later, the lioness was fleeing, pursued by the furious wildebeest one-third of its size. Dripping blood from previous injuries, this callow calf showed the now disgraced lion a clean set of cloven heels...
The calf succeeded in driving away the lioness...
