Wild Lioness Hunts Down Young Buffalo! | Amazing Lion Vs Buffalo Encounter

A lone lioness with newborn cubs hidden nearby shown catching a young buffalo by a suffocating grip on its nose and mouth.
The young buffalo was chased out of a herd by the lioness which is why it was alone. Lions catch buffalo regularly but with the drought the buffalo are in a weakened state so the lions have found it easier than usual to bring down their prey.
Despite the fact the buffalo is young it still weighs more than the lone lioness and it takes a while for her to overpower the prey.
Epic Lion vs Buffalo encounter
The lioness was alone due to having newborn cubs, as mentioned earlier. Although she would rejoin the pride from time to time she had to return to the den regularly to let the cubs suckle. This encounter with the buffalo occurred within meters of the den, meaning the rest of the lion pride was far away and did not join the meal.

About Rob The Ranger Wildlife Videos:
The purpose of the channel is to show what it is like to experience seeing wild animals on an African safari. Nature Documentaries are often highly edited to tell a story, wildlife safaris are not, and the idea here is to show the wildlife sightings the way they were seen. Safari tours in Africa are generally suitable for all ages and this channel can be considered an educational channel about incredible nature, some scenes in the nature videos may be more graphic than people are used to but this is the reality of nature and is what you would see if you were present on such a safari in person. Safaris in Kenya, South Africa, or any other African country are an unrivalled experience for anyone with a passion for nature, wildlife photography, and travel. Hopefully the animal videos on this channel can provide a glimpse into what the nature experience is like and encourage more people to take a wildlife safari one day.

@vn8375 5 жыл бұрын

David Navarro Lions always do, with exception to rare circumstances. If a carnivore eats before the animal has passed, it’s because the carnivore doesn’t have the ability to do it any other way. Typically because they are not strong or big enough. Such as dogs. Painted dogs have the ability to kill large prey, as a pack. But they are simply to small to wrap their jaws around the necks or mouths of something like a buffalo. They would never be able to suffocate a buffalo. Therefore, the tactic changes. One will hold the nose down, while the others do the rest of the work, unfortunately while the prey animal is still alive

@BloodyElbow707 5 жыл бұрын

V N I’ve seen so many videos of prides of lions eating animals alive.. One will go for the neck or mouth and nose like this lioness. While the others start eating.. To say they never do is a lie lol. Was literally just watching one while a lioness had a younger buffalo by the throat while young males started eating it alive, through its ass and stomach...

@Liger._King 5 жыл бұрын

V N, such animals as the painted dogs that you mentioned enjoy eating fast food. That is why they eat their food while it's on the run - fast-food style.

@DecodingHistory. 5 жыл бұрын

@@vn8375 They absolutely have the ability to bring them down and kill them first. But dogs don't because they simply can't protect the kill from other bigger predators. Therefore, they have to eat is ASAP. Which means that, unfortunately for the animal, being eaten whilst it's still alive. Nothing to do with size, the numbers and teamwork compensate for their size.

Lions dont kill the prey out of mercy. They kill it because it will make their life much easier while eating it. But if the prey is already paralyzed by any reason they will directly proceed to ripping the flesh

Textbook. I have seen 10 lionesses sit behind a buffalo, without a single one realizing that the only way they were going to kill the animal was to suffocate it. By biting its mouth shut, this lioness immediately begins the suffocation process while at the same time shutting up the buffalo to prevent it from crying for help from its herd
