We all see this 15 year old sometimes hobbling about, and then he goes and shows us he's not quite retired yet..... He wants to show off for his pride, that he's not useless and too old. I remember when he tried to creep over Aunty Othawa while she was snoozing, only to have her bounce up and growl harshly at him! He then proceeded to roar several times, a bit sheepish at being caught.... ;  I hope he goes out from old age and not from a gored buffalo injury though! He might be waking up later on with stiff back and legs....haha! :) What an unforgettable character and survivor.

This whole episode of the Othawa lion pride taking down a buffalo was hands down one of the most exciting events I have witnessed in the bush. It really does not happen often to see the whole process from start to finish. See my Instagram Stories for scenes from the buffalo hunt.

"Everyone seems to be scared of him at the moment says ranger."
Ealier on the same video guide said that Tumbela males are growing in confidence and are seen more and more on the property.
