00:00 In the search for food, the wild buffalo is a familiar prey of lions.
00:06 To learn more about these two animals, as well as the details on how to hunt buffaloes
00:11 of this animal.
00:12 Now, let's find out together.
00:16 The extremely cruel moments of a lion attacking a wild buffalo.
00:22 The African lion is a strong animal, with an extremely deceitful and skillful way of
00:27 hunting.
00:28 Lions are said to be opportunistic predators, possessing stealthy steps that follow their
00:33 prey.
00:34 They will pounce on the animal closest to them, regardless of the age, sex or condition
00:39 of the prey.
00:41 Lions usually eat their prey immediately after catching them, but it can still eat leftovers,
00:47 even rotting food left by other carnivores when they are not able to go hunting themselves.
00:52 If there is an abundance of food, the lion usually eats every 3 to 4 days, but they can
01:00 also live without any food for a week.
01:03 The average lion consumes about 5 to 7 kilograms of meat per day.
01:09 The African buffalo is closely related to the wild Asian water buffalo.
01:15 The mature buffalo horns are typical of this species.
01:19 The horns fuse at the corner base, forming a continuous bony shield known as a hump.
01:26 The African buffalo is considered a very fierce and aggressive animal and can run at a speed
01:31 of 50 to 60 km/h.
01:35 They are said to have gored and killed more than 200 people a year.
01:40 Buffaloes prefer to live in wet grasslands, swamps and dense river valleys.
01:46 A lion and a cub hunting a wild buffalo.
01:51 Young lions first exhibit stalking behavior at about 3 months of age, although they do
01:57 not engage in predation until nearly a year of age and begin to hunt effectively near
02:04 two years of age.
02:06 Lions hunt in groups, often successfully, and the lionesses, despite their smaller size,
02:12 do most of the hunting and killing.
02:15 Male lions exist mainly to protect the herd and they are great fighters.
02:21 The lion's mane is an evolution for the skirmishes and the mane resists potential fatal bites
02:27 and scratches.
02:29 But due to the mane's size and due to their large size and difficulty in hiding, they
02:35 are ineffective in hunting.
02:37 The sight of a herd of lions and cubs hunting was caught by the attention of the visitors.
02:44 Today's prey of the lion and the mother is a large wild buffalo.
02:47 With their strength, they quickly defeat their prey.
02:52 And after that, the mother lion and her cubs devour their fruits, as the stomachs of the
02:57 lion cubs swell after enjoying wild buffalo meat.
03:06 The Lion Defeat The Buffalo
03:09 The video below describes the scene where the buffalo broke his leg and he died tragically
03:14 when he encountered three male lions.
03:17 Before that, the wild buffalo was resting in a bush and was discovered by the lions.
03:23 Initially, it rushes to attack the mighty enemy to scare and drive away the lions.
03:30 However, the lions were not trapped by the buffalo and they immediately attacked.
03:36 Lion lions in general are strong animals, with a very decisive and skillful way of hunting.
03:43 They usually do not hunt in groups, but they hunt alone.
03:46 Coordination is very important in a case that the prey is too large.
03:51 Some lions have the task of baiting the prey while other lions silently come and finish.
03:58 Usually, female lions hunt more than the male lions.
04:02 But in the case of a large or larger sized prey that requires strength, the male lions
04:09 will take action, as the strength of lions is also reflected in the fact that they always
04:14 hunt in groups with wise tactics.
04:18 With superior strength and thanks to the help of their fellows, the lions only took a few
04:23 minutes to defeat the wild buffalo.
04:26 Afterwards, they enjoyed a sumptuous feast of buffalo meat.
04:31 After being full, the lions immediately looked for a nearby stream to drink some water.
04:37 Finally, when they are full, they take time to rest and cuddle and cares each other.
04:46 The lion approaches the buffalo from behind.
04:52 Thanks to their large size, their teeth and their sharp claws, lions have easily become
04:57 one of the most feared predators across the grasslands of Africa.
05:02 This is also the reason why they are nicknamed the "Lord of the Meadow".
05:08 From small animals such as hares or mongooses, the giants such as elephants and buffaloes
05:14 can become the prey of lions.
05:18 As the lion is quietly stalking the prey, it was aimed at a large wild buffalo, and
05:24 to avoid direct confrontation, the lion gently slipped behind the buffalo to each approach
05:29 the prey.
05:31 Knowing that he was weak in this battle, the buffalo immediately ran away, but not letting
05:36 the prey escape, from many sides the lions attack the buffalo.
05:41 Then, the lion tries to bite the buffalo's nose tightly to make the opponent suffocate.
05:47 Some of them take down their prey by repeatedly biting and delivering consecutive blows to
05:53 its legs and thighs.
05:56 Before the siege of the lions, the wild buffalo was forced to obediently become its prey.
06:02 The scene where the buffalo becomes the lion's dinner
06:08 The lion seems to be focused on stalking something in the distance.
06:13 Today's prey of lions is the wild buffalo.
06:16 He was engrossed in grazing when suddenly a lion appeared from behind.
06:21 Surprised, the buffalo turned to chase the lion, but out of nowhere a few more lions
06:27 appeared and they split up on the hunting mission.
06:31 A quick-witted lion deals the first blow to the buffalo's back and hangs on top of it.
06:37 As the remaining lions coordinate it very well, they immediately try to bite the body
06:43 legs of the wild buffalo.
06:46 The lion is known as the lord of the jungle, and the lion hunts even the largest of preys
06:52 such as buffalo and wildebeest.
06:55 The near absolute success of these predators is due to the combination of skills.
07:01 Lions live in groups and all members hunt together, as the cubs soon learn their hunting
07:06 skills through fighting and games together.
07:09 Then the buffalo fell to the ground and they gradually enjoyed their meal.
07:16 Thus it can be seen with the excellent coordination of the member of the herd.
07:21 Lions easily kill larger prey such as wildebeest, wild boar, zebra and even wild buffalo, elephants
07:29 and hippos.
