A fearless, tiny dog named Steven confronted a herd of lively wildebeest in the grasslands of South Africa.

Jaco Kruger and Wanja Harjes, both 20, and Shanel Kruger, 25, were out one an evening with their dogs when they pulled up to watch the sunset near Christiana.

The group let Australian cattle dog Steven, and Italian greyhound Mice, out to explore the grasslands while they relaxed in the car.

They spotted a herd of wildebeest coming toward them and called the dogs back to the car - however, Steven decided to stand his ground and valiantly defend them.

Steven bravely confronted the wildebeest, who can be seen jumping around and charging at the pup.

Eventually, the wild animals gave in and decided to leave Steven and the rest of the group alone - bounding off into the sunset.
