Buffalo vs. Lion vs. Crocodile

thnaks

very interesting images. I could not believe to my eyes.

For some reason I watched and found myself thinking pro wrestling has nothing on nature videos.

Isn't that a Cape Buffalo? Although they look similar to the Asian water buffalo, the latter don't live in Africa.

You're absolutely right, Pov. Good call.

Now that's real life!

Amazing yes, I live in South Africa. And it is really amazing.
Buffalo are one of the few truly feared herbivores. Ive seen lions take on a hippo in the water before. But seeing the crocs dig in was quite a surprise

I think that this is one of the most exciting video sequences I've ever seen - amazing.

How do we know this is not a fake?

@Greg Laden

Don't suspect everything in life. U will loose more in life than u gain. Just njoy the video :)

That is awesome. Those buffalo came back and they were like, "what now?! what now?!"

WOW, those cats got punked!

I was amazed at the way the buffalo communicated and reached a consensus to carry out counter attack. It's really amazing.

Greg - Just out of curiosity, how would this video be faked? Herds of trained lions and buffalo? Unprecedentedly good CGI technology that the technicians are keeping secret for the purposes of prank wildlife videos, rather than selling to Hollywood?

;)

I lived in South Africa for nearly 5 years and witnessed adult female lions (with cubs) do similar with a herd of Buffalo. They divided the herd and I was amazed to see the Pride focus on just one Buffalo and chase it down. The herd charged the Lions and the Buffalo escaped, without a tail. Sadly, the young cubs went hungry. Fabulous footage! You are very lucky to see such a struggle.

ABC had a web-clips TV show (ICaught?) that featured this a couple of months ago. They interviewed the guy who captured it all, and of course, showed the video a few timess.

Pretty good stuff.

That is awesome... It is awesome how God has put a since of family in aniamls see how the buffalo came back for their young and they worked together to save it.. See animals do have feeling and they care about each other as well.... God bless

Get somehow God neglected to give you as much "since." What a bastard.

Ohh... Garibaldi I haven't seen you in a while! I've missed you!

Garibaldi, "Get" it looks as though you have a lot of "since" as well. What a bastard.
