00:00They're swimming, oh my gosh.
00:02They've never had to swim before.
00:04The cubs are panicking.
00:05You can easily attract crocodiles.
00:09Greg is with the Kudum pride and a large herd of buffalo.
00:12If there was ever a place that I wouldn't want to be as a lion,
00:15it's here, stuck between all of those buffalos
00:18and a big river channel.
00:20Despite the fact that buffalos are food for the lions,
00:24they're also very much foe.
00:26They can kill lions, and they often kill lions.
00:31The lions still haven't eaten, and now they're
00:34the ones being challenged.
00:36It's a wall of horns.
00:38Lionesses have made their way with the cubs
00:40right onto the water's edge.
00:41They have nowhere to go.
00:47Dominant pride male Big Toe moves in
00:49to slow the buffalo advance.
00:51Big Toe has parked himself off right
00:54in between the buffalo and the rest of the pride.
00:57He's trying to hold his ground here.
01:07Uh-oh.
01:10But the buffalo have the upper hand.
01:15Here comes a bull.
01:21Ah.
01:27You almost squashed Matata.
01:30Everyone's in the water.
01:34Okavango lions are capable swimmers,
01:38but this is Matata and the cubs' first flood.
01:42They're swimming.
01:43Oh my gosh.
01:45They've never had to swim before.
01:48The cubs are panicking.
01:52It can easily attract crocodiles.
01:57We could lose one of these lions or cubs.
02:01The lionesses are hesitating.
02:02They don't want to get into deep water.
02:11They're swimming after them.
02:21Two of them are with the cubs.
02:26Even a big lion like him is vulnerable to crocodiles.
02:31They're still in deep water now.
02:32Still deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep.
02:44Yo.
02:46That was close.
02:51They've made it across to this side of the channel.
03:00Oh, that was too much.
