The animals went in two-by-two for a traveller who was stunned to find a ‘Noah’s Ark’ menagerie in the back garden of his Airbnb.
Alex Zarini was confronted by a wildlife spectacle of nyala, impala and zebra.
The 30-year-old ironworker had only just arrived at an Airbnb near Kruger National Park, South Africa, and couldn’t believe his eyes.

A video of the spectacle garnered over 40,000 views and nearly 1,300 likes on Instagram, with users comparing it to the religious tale.
“The animals came in a sudden mob through the backyard,” Alex, from Ontario, Canada, told What’s The Jam.
“Then they left just as fast.
“I was shocked and generally speechless when I saw it at first.
“I had been in South Africa for all of an hour when I saw all of them.
“I just grabbed my phone and started to record because I didn’t want to miss it.
“South Africa is an ultimate destination for wildlife lovers and anybody that wants to have that experience should definitely check it out.”
Viewers loved the spectacle.
One said: “Are you by any chance building Noah’s Ark?”
Another added: “I wish that was me when I see animals like that in my own backyard.”
While a third said: “Meals on wheels.”
