@@cynharman6866 Wrong. Hyenas are extremely effective hunters and have an extremely high success rate when hunting. Sounds like you've been watching The Lion King a little too much.
Finally an African wildlife video that doesn’t result in the horrific death of some poor creature. I know many creatures have to hunt to eat, but I personally don’t want to watch an animal get ripped to pieces and eaten while still alive.
Personally, the adult sized healthy african elephant is the real king and queen of the african savannahas that doesn't have no natural enemy to rival with and never shows no fear like a champ! ❤🐘
I know they didn’t secure the kill, but this really goes to show that hyenas are far from the cowardly and weak scavengers that most people make them out to be but powerful and calculated apex predators
Just like wild dogs, they’re nothing without numbers and need at least 10-20 of them to 1 prey to succeed. 2-3 lions can take on 20 wild dogs and Hyenas. It’s like 10-20 gang members attacking 1 person, you think gang members are tough and top apex also?
This shows that hyenas are excellent hunters. Its never a nice sight when a babie animal is under attacks, but to attack a calf with 10+adult demants respect.
@@socialismsucks1 for the baby elephant only when I saw half of the vid I thought they wouldn't make it and then when the baby to caught I started crying idk why
Big channels like lNational Geographic never show the rare times when predators are successful despite their huge production budget, so when safari videos are posted of a successful kill people lose their minds and get mad like its the cameraman's fault
Is that CGI ? This has a weird synthetic feel. The lighting (sure it's midnight but still feels weird), the shots with a narrow depth of field (that can help blend a background and foreground with the action in the middle)
OMG....never in life saw such struggle for elephants herd....I thought calf is gone....bledy hyeans are even threat for elephants is difficult to digest😢
Elephants are emotional animals. When they have little ones like this they never take chances of any predators. That's doesn't mean they are cowards. Mostly they charge every animal who messes with them without fear.
@@lastoutlaw3882 I wasn't thinking they are cowards what amazed me was that no matter how big you are when attacked by a determined foe you would get scared
@@lastoutlaw3882 they left the calf behind at one point, like running for their lives and not protecting the young one. And that's a very bad comparison pal, A few hyenas can actually kill a lioness, but almost nothing can kill a full grown elephant
Both elephants and hyenas do share many similarities and things in common: 1. Both are really smart mammals. 2. Both share the same hierarchy society. 3. Both are social animals living in large social groups. 4. Both animals are have the higher ranking dominant female as the leader of the group. 5. Both males from the respective species are kicked out of the groups when they reach the age of puberty by seeking out in bachelor groups with other outcast males. 6. The dominant alfa queens of both species take charge and higher ranks in everything. 7. There can also be a strong sisterhood dynamic among female elephants and hyenas as they stick together in groups forever by developing a strong bonds like powerhouse womans and queens.
Point 5 is where they differ from Elephants, most males actually exile themselves for better mating opportunities, they aren't forced out most by their mother most of the times, there also have been cases of males actually remaining in their clan into adulthood. Not to mention that Spotted Hyena societal structure is more based on rank, males actually can become the leaders of their clans if they are the youngest offspring at the time of a matriarch's death, however once they become adults they generally exile themselves.

Yup. Fully aware of that, Cliff Clavin.
Thank you anyway.
Thank God the baby was saved!🙏🏼
And the newborn baby hyenas starve!?
I hope your baby never starves!
Newborn hyena do not eat meat.
I agree with you I love elephants the hyenas won’t starve they pinch most of their meals and can eat rotting meat and bones
@@cynharman6866

just stop it.@@socialismsucks1
The resounding cries of the elephants, the ferocious cries of the hyenas and taking place in the dim darkness created a dramatic battle.
3:45 amazing the oldest member of the heard senses that whispering squeal from the baby.
God bless baby elephants and the mama and the herd are safe!!!🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
That was scary 😮
They sure had a lot of babies in the herd!
I love elephants and wish them all are safe and being healthy and being protected.
Thank you momma and grand momma elephants. Poor baby elephant. I hope the baby elephant survives!
The grandmother for sure.

Mom..always best❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This most amazing clip made my day! Awesome!!! 👍👍👍👍 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Glad the little one is safe
Truly amazing, thank you cameraman!!!
Hyenas are extremely underrated. Lions get all the attention and praise but hyenas are no joke.
They're always a joke in front of lions.
I have several hyena jokes would you care to hear one?
@@Scho-penhauer Not always.
@@mrphatmunkeyspew6969 sure 😂

Yes.
Luckily for the baby Elephants are smarter than most animals.

i came here from tik tok to check on my niece and make sure she made it 😂😂😂
That made me cry just watching that as I love baby elephants & Hate hyenas
The hyenas have to eat to survive too
Elephants are such majestic creatures. Hyenas on the otherhand can be misunderstood. Hopefully this ended well for the baby elephant.
Elephants are like Buffaloes if they stay calm and act like a wall, fortress ... the predators can't penetrate
Teamwork ❤

Respect the balance; every animal has a role in nature.

Such a pity the video is so dark even though I'm watching in 4k it's so dark..
It’s nighttime, you can see the stars in the sky.
And that's the main reason why hyenas typically hunts elephant at undercover of darkness the most.
Filmed at dusk.
Taji came our swingin’!! This was so stressful to watch 😣
Gorgeous
It would have been interesting to see a full grown bull elephant there.
Much respect to both species’ survival instincts
Those spotted hyenas are really afraid of elephants large size in general.
What amazing and intense moment great video
That was intense
It says a lot about hyenas that they will target elephants

Fortunately the young elegant has very thick skin, so the hyenas didn’t have time to inflict real damage

It took the other elephant's long enough help.

I had a feeling the hyenas wouldn't be able to get the baby. Too many adults.
Please can the mama elephant put the baby on her back?
