There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Lion broke the leg tendons making it impossible for the buffalo to stand properly but buffalo was still powerful enough to keep lion at bay therefore lion waited for buffalo to fell/sit down and kill in night - same strategy as followed by lioness to kill giraffe in above post.
Do you know what is the name if the video?
Is it on youtube?
This technique is used by lions on very large animals, like the lioness on a bull eland that I posted about on the lion predation thread, although it also held on to the legs until the eland collapsed from exhaustion and possibly chewed up tendons.
Yes it was on youtube, but I don't remember the name, and back then I didn't mark videos - Buffalo was in thick jungle under a beautiful tree and lion hanging on its sides for long time only to be pushed away later.
Buffalo was magnificent example of power & muscles, and it was saddening to see demise of such an exemplary buffalo bull.
These days I save the photograph of animals I find interesting and save videos in my playlist on youtube.
!Can someone guide me how to upload photographs from laptop to post - it gives option of sharing online links only.
