RE: Lion Predation - Pantherinae - 01-23-2019 Our team at Kirawira Serena Camp in Western Serengeti, Tanzania were lucky to witness a battle between a lion and a crocodile at the shores of the Grumeti River which is home to enormous Nile crocodiles during a game drive. The river falls on the migration trail of the million migrating wildebeest with the crocodiles having a feast each time these animals migrate. They managed to capture the aftermath of the fight. Sadly, the crocodile lost the battle this time round and the story ended up being a situation of hunter becoming the hunted *This image is copyright of its original author *This image is copyright of its original author *This image is copyright of its original author
RE: Lion Predation - Pantherinae - 01-24-2019 An absolutley phenomenal hunt by lions the strategy and the tremendous power from the lioness jumping straight at the zebra running in full speed. Lioness really are spectacular hunters.

Lioness really are spectacular hunters. That was one crazy attack, as so often. This one is well known, but I think, that a good example about situation, where is combination of skill, strength and also luck. I mean that lion could easily been badly injured when landing if unlucky. That video is made as some music video, but whole situation is also there a few times. Crazy hunting :) Sometimes these animals look like insane. RE: Lion Predation - Spalea - 01-24-2019 @Shadow : About #581: I knew this video I saw a long time ago, glad to see it again ! Of course as @Pantherinae said lions are able to be spectacular hunters, individually or in groups. Moreover they know perfectly well the topography of their hunting ground which allows them to prepare their ambushs efficiently. RE: Lion Predation - Shadow - 01-26-2019 Interesting footage. RE: Lion Predation - Shadow - 01-26-2019 Another one with a turtle getting eaten up. |
