This is the horrifying moment a crocodile launches a surprise attack on a herd of thirsty Impalas drinking by a dam.

The footage shows the crocodile suddenly emerging from the water and catching one the Impalas as the other members of the herd run away.

The crocodile then drags the Impala into the water and swims away with the prey in its jaws.

The clip was filmed on February 6 in Kruger National Park.

Kruger National Park, South Africa. Amazing video footage of how a Massive Crocodile catches an Impala at the Berg en Dal Rest Camp Dam(viewable from the restaurant) in Southern Kruger Park.Amazing but scary experience !
The video was recorded on a cellphone by a tourist on safari in South Africa's Kruger Park. He was innocently filming animals coming down to drink at the dam next to the rest camp when this incident suddenly played off.
There was descent water in the pools but thick mud around the edges.In previous and subsequent visits there was only one large pool in front of the camp. After the kill, other large crocodiles came up to challenge for a portion of the spoils. Video may be edited if needed.
