Lost Baby Wildebeest Is Convinced This Car Is His Mom And Chases It For Miles

Young children like to explore and end up finding themselves in a lot of trouble, but that is half the fun of having children, they are a constant source of surprises! Human babies are not the only ones who have that adventurous and curious spirit. A couple in South Africa were on a scenic drive in South Africa when they saw a baby wildebeest that had misplaced its mother!

The baby stumbled out of the brush lost and confused, but once the baby wildebeest saw their car, it started to follow them!

You have to wonder what the baby thought the care was – did it think that the car would help him find his momma?

Maybe he figured it was better to follow the big blue machine rather than be alone (safety in numbers)!
