The jackal warns the vultures of the dangers of venturing nearer. ZIMANGA PRIVATE GAME RESERVE, SOUTH AFRICA: SEE THE moment three jackals had a TWO-HOUR scrap over dinner ? with an audience of ravenous VULTURES watching on. In one image, a hungry 22-pound jackal happily walked along with intestines hanging out of its mouth having just scavenged his dinner. In another, the jackal was joined by two of his pack who attempted to challenge him for the food before finally, several vultures joined in on the action. Photographer Seyms Brugger (42) from Johannesburg, South Africa, captured the incredible two-hour-long food fight in the country?s Zimanga Private Game Reserve. Seyms stood just 11-yards away as he photographed the action on his Nikon D850 camera using a 200-400 F4 lens. Jackals are scavengers and tend to hunt for carcasses in pairs although they will also hunt larger prey like antelopes and gazelles if the need strikes. They run at speeds of just 10 miles-per-hour but utilise their curved canine teeth when making a kill. / Seyms Brugger
