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.

Nice find! I have been looking for footage like this (very much looking like authentic and not some edited rubbish). In this it can be clearly seen, that it´s a lion which that crocodile rolls in the water, even though young lioness. Deep enough water and big crocodile there is not something big cats can take lightly, even though in this case too male did go and take over that carcass. Thanks for sharing this one, very interesting in more than one way! I had never before seen any clip showing that a lion actually get killed by a croc. And of course this leaves for some people possibility to say, that kill wasn´t seen... but I don´t think that croc would roll over already dead animal like it does in this clip. So I take this as (finally) one for crocs.

I think lioness was already killed by the crocodile when the filmmakers came across the scene and the crocs were just feeding on the carcass, thats why the crocs are performing death roll to tear the meat.Imagine the filmmakers would have been extremely lucky to capture the actual killing and also the white patches on the skin, tail of the lioness not thrashing around during the struggle(death roll) would indicate that the animal was already dead when the filmmakers filmed it.
