Why are there no quality videos of asiatic lions hunting nilgai and sambar deer .?

This question is asked before by someone in previous pages.

LOL. You won't see them coz Asiatic lion hunting wild prey these days is quite rare and other than that, filming is not usually allowed or it is difficult to film in forest than in Savanna but at the same time in India, tiger hunting is filmed in "jungles" since many years but don't know the mystery of not filming lion chasing cheetal or nilgai, even though allowed, we can only see start of the hunt and lions feeding on them in all documentaries on wild Asian lions. There are some videos of Gir Lion hunting camel which are domesticated.

@Rishi can explain better than me in this topic. I'll try.

I watched many...... Asian lion videos. but no video like this "type" African Lion hunting full chase, neck bite and fighting with prey is not filmed on Gir lions may be because they don't hunt or it isn't allowed to film.

This is a famous video of lion couldn't find the original "LION" hunt video but the this is the lion video motion censored to a smilodon from the lion reflex of the original video of lion hunting a zebra in "Ice Age Giants" A BBC programme.

For example:

I think it is the only video that I posted before, that shot this clip of Asiatic lion clamping its jaws into deer and dragging its kill after hunt.

See the full video...

Hunt on Blue bull or Nilgai but didn't specify that it was already dead or hunted by lions. Reply
