    Hyenas are smart, they go for young, weak, dead, old, and use their brain and strength in numbers to steal or defend their kill!

    Some spotted hyena clans in Ngorogoro Crater have learnt to even pull down healthy adult bull buffaloes, not just old, sick ones.
    Those clans have also been witnessed pulling down healthy zebra stallions as well.
    I haven't noticed clans from other parts of Africa daring to do the same.
    Predation in large mammalian predators is a learnt behavior. Offspring learn from their mother or other pack/pride.
    So prey choices and predation capabilities of the same species can vary drastically from area to area.
    This has been seen in several other predators as well.
    Kruger male leopards routinely bring down healthy, adult warthog boars, however male leopards from other areas of Africa rarely do.
    Bull Gaur (largest wild cattle) are immune to tiger predation in North India & Nepal but are routinely preyed by Tigers in South India & Thailand.

      You are absolutely right, there is a high diversity in hunting habits of various predators according to the location.

      That's right. Hyenas can't hold a fork and a knife in their paws like we do in our hands. They have no other choice but to use their teeth.

    Old ill and weak buffalo separated from the rest of it's herd or left behind as it's to slow to keep up with them. The buffalos who came in the morning are probably another herd coming through, even if it got saved at night this would have happened sooner or later.

    • @LivingZoology
      @LivingZoology  3 года назад +3

      Our guide lives in the bush in Botswana for his whole life and he saw this for the first time in his life! Yes, buffalo was already old. We are not sure if that was the herd to which it belonged.

      @@LivingZoology Yes unfortunately it's old and I think if the other buffalo's came earlier on and helped it out it may have gone on for a little longer but inevitably it would have died as when they can't keep up with the herd whether there old ill or injured there eventually left behind and that's what probably happened to this one. They normally help one another out regardless of whether there comrade is injured as there very courageous. I have only seen this once in my life when another herd was helping a buffaloe from a different herd as the guide told me that. I've been to multiple safaris in SA kurger nation park, Zimbabwe Botswana, Tanzania the serengeti.

    That Buffalo when laying on the ground was still alive while being eaten. You could see it’s eye balls flickering around. Hyenas often do that. Such a poor way for any living creature to go.

    1 Buffalo vs even 2 hyenas is sometimes tough for the Buffalo as the hyenas would start from the side or rear. But 2 Buffaloes vs any number of hyenas would beat the hyenas down. The buffaloes would help each other when hyena attacks the unreachable side of buffalo

      No, entire herds of buffalo scamper away in fear from a smaller number of wild dogs. It would be similar with hyenas.
