The Lioness and the Lesser Kudu

A spiral horned kudu antelope sprints for its life in a last struggle for survival. Hot in pursuit of the ungulate is a large lioness, who bounds effortlessly across the grass after its prey.

On first sight of the scene, your mind might automatically recall footage from a nature documentary set in the African Serengeti. But you aren’t in a great savannah. You’re in London, looking at a realistic and life-sized pair of sculptures. The bronze sculptures look so lifelike in the glint of the sun that with a bit of imagination, you can almost imagine these two creatures charging across the road in front of one of the red buses and causing a major traffic accident.
