Mantimahle Male Lions take down buffalo on the road - Kruger National Park
On the 2nd of October 2015, Marten Lange was doing a game drive with safari guests for Elephant Herd Safaris and Tours in Kruger National Park, South Africa. Between Skukuza and Tshokwane when he arrived at the Mantimahle waterhole he saw some lions lying in the shade of a bush. The guests were thrilled but wanted to see the lion a bit better then suddenly the lion lifted their heads. The sighings what happened then was just unbelievable.
The two buffaloes came running from the waterhole side with the four male lions, the Mantimahle Coalition, chasing them. The one buffalo turned around as it feard the lions and try to fight back but that was a grave mistake. The rest is history as they say...
