Title: Battle of the Savannah Kings - an incredible video
Post by: skeptigirl on June 02, 2007, 10:59:20 AM
This is an incredible 8 minute animal encounter. I don't want to give away the ending but it has several twists and turns you have to see to believe!

Thank you, Skeptigirl.  That is a great video.  I've had more than enough of seeing animals being eaten by predators in documentary footage.  Fantastic to see the one that got away for a change, especially in this amazing scenario!

I actually had no idea the water buffalo would face the lion threat like that. I always wondered why grazing animals didn't attack in force against predators. Interesting to find out they actually do in some species.
