|Vurhami Male Lions Pushed Off Buffalo Carcass By Huge Crocodiles|
An interesting sighting we had recently of the remaining 2 Vurhami male lions, this was along the Crocodile river, Mjejane Game Reserve, Kruger National Park.
They had taken down a buffalo during the night and were slowly pushed off their carcass by some very large Crocodiles. The buffalo was too heavy to move, even these strong male lions struggled to move it, so they eventually conceded to the crocodiles.
The younger of the 2 Vurhami males was rather brave and attempted to compete with the huge reptiles for a short time before giving up! At least they seem to have had a good meal before the crocodiles took over and their bellies were close to full.
