This hunt reminds me of a very young lioness who also killed the kudu bull, I posted that account long long ago, she did it on here own too. However in the hunt, I believe she could have killed it on her own, considering she brought it down by herself. Such an amazing feat for a little lioness.

~~We were called yesterday by Lion Guardian Masarie who had just come across a huge eland kill, and the tracks of a big male lion. He reported that it was a fresh kill and that not much had been eaten, so we rushed to the scene, hoping to find out who had made this massive kill!When we arrived at the scene we were indeed impressed by the size of the eland that he had brought down and wondered who this strong and powerful lion could be.
"(Eland Weights)The males weigh 400 to 1,000 kg (880 to 2,200 lb) and females weigh 300 to 600 kg (660 to 1,320 lb). "

 

That lioness picture with the Kudu is impressive!  Reply
