On assignment...(heads up large pics)

On assignment....

This is Jake on assignment with National Geographic. Today we are out in the bush in search of the elusive Minimus Automotivus. Minimus often strays from the beaten path most of the automotivus family follows in search of a fresh meal. Today we have been lucky enough to spot this rare beast in the wild and on the hunt for wild boar.

Here we can see the wild boar peacefully grazing, woefully ignorant of the Minimus slowly stalking it.



Slowly Minimus approaches the beast salvating at the thought of fresh meat.



As Minimus approaches she prepares to strike and disable the beast with quick chomp of her powerful jaws.



Finally the moment arrives and without warning she STRIKES!





The frames after this one are by international law too gruesome to post, but let me just say Minimus is a fearsome beast. There was much blood and splaying of flesh as the boar tried to struggle, but alas the boar was no match for the quick and nimble Minimus. When in groups Minimus has been known to attack larger prey, even member's of it's own Automotivus family, such as SUVlargeassivus, 18wheelhumongovis and Slowsedanivus. Those lucky few who have witnessed one of these attacks say it was the most shocking and awesome display they have ever seen.


We were later able to catch up with Minimus as she sat by the local watering pond, sated with a stomach full of fresh boar meat.

I loved your combination of creative photography and story! One big problem now....with 2 Minimus JaCeeDubuvus (which I hear are the fiercest and most aggressive) I am afraid to go in the garage....


Do they look angry?
