SOUTH AFRICA – Two Kruger National Park workers had a scary run-in with a rhinoceros.
Farm manager Andrew Taylor and assistant lodge manager Sam Vorster said they heard about a cheetah around the park, so they decided to search for it on their lunch break. Little did they know that they would find more than just a big cat.

According to Today.com, Taylor thought he saw a big rock, but it turned out to be a black rhino.
They parked their jeep to capture the animal on camera, but apparently, the rhino didn't think it was a good time for a photo opp.
The rhino charged at the jeep and "stopped its charge and turned around at (8 inches) from the car door," Vorster told wildlife site Latest Sightings. The scary moment was caught on video.
Vorster, who filmed the encounter on his cellphone, dropped the camera as Taylor jumped in his lap.
"We both got the giggles and left the rhino to be grumpy by himself," Voster told Latest Sightings. "We then watched the video of him coming for us a few times over, giggling like little schoolgirls."
