Fox hunting a Tapir in the Pantanal


There is a crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) chasing a tapir (Tapirus terrestris) and together they are stalking two cows (Bos indicus) ... No, it's just a wonderful example of how humans and their livestock can live together in harmony with their natural environment.

By the way: the tapir is a browser, the crab-eating fox doesn't go for tapirs and the cows are grazers. We, just watch them.
