A group of photographers became key players in a nature scene when a puma briefly used them to hide from its prey, a guanaco. Felipe Román, a naturalist guide in Chile’s Torres del Paine National Park, recorded the moment a puma crept through a group of visitors, who were in awe of the scene unfolding in front of them. The animal then stalked a guanaco, a relative of llamas native to South America.

“Unforgettable moment Dania [the puma] gifted us today as she closed in and strategically used us as a barrier to go unnoticed while trying to hunt a guanaco,” Román wrote in the Instagram post sharing the video. Surely this was an experience the visitors will never forget.
