In the clip, three lions defeated a baby calf. Discovering that a member of the herd was in trouble, about 300 wild buffaloes came to surround 3 lions to rescue their brethren.
Even though the opponent has numerical superiority, the lions still show no fear, they are determined to confront the buffalo to win their prey. As a result, the wild buffalo herd returned 11 times but still could not save the calf.
The rescue lasted more than half an hour. In the end, the buffalo herd had to give up and the calf lost its life under the claws of three lions.
The African wild buffalo, also known as the Cape buffalo, is one of the five major animals on the continent along with lions, leopards, rhinos and elephants.
Meanwhile, lions are one of the most fearsome predators across the African grasslands. Thanks to their outstanding strength, plus their sharp teeth and claws, they can defeat many other animals for food. The fastest way to defeat prey that African lions often use is to attack the prey’s respiratory system, bite or tear the throat.
In fact, wild buffalo are not easy to bully creatures in Africa. If a lion hunts alone and subjectively, it is entirely possible that it will be seriously injured or even die. Therefore, when hunting wild buffalo, lions often follow the herd, choosing the lone or weakest animal for easy slaughter. However, if the buffalo herds gather together to protest, things will become much more difficult.
