Awesome stuff Lads. No stupid music, no Ralph Fiennes' annoying, overdramatic voice, no clashing of cymbals and banging of ridiculous drums. Just the sounds of nature and natural occurrences - just as it should be. Well done boys - you blew 'Savage Kingdom' out of the water!
Sure. Such encounters not for faint hearted photographers wueh! I think these adult buffs can hit and overturn these vehicles especially when in such moments of stress.
Only one brave lioness out of 15 who wouldn't give up the buffalo. For all the hard work of the lioness, the male gets the first rights to the kill! The buffaloes wouldn't let go of their dead either. Awesome video
This was absolutely a nail biting THRILLER in MalaMala Game Reserve for sure. No doubt one of the best Lion/Buffalo battles I've ever seen! Thank you for providing all of us with a front row view.
Unparalleled & legendary, positioned right at the centre of it all. A vast assembly of buffalo confronts the Kambula pride in a life-or-death clash. The raw strength & ferocity are showcased when the Kambula lioness wraps her grip around the nose of a buffalo & overpowers it bringing him to the ground. Mastery comes with the practice for the young Kambula pride members. Even though the group sought to aid a fellow member of the herd, they became entangled in a back-and-forth battle with the lions. Thank you, MalaMala, for capturing these incredible wild moments❤
Great footage here! Looks like a lesson learned for the young lions which did a great job. Crazy how the big males come in when it’s all over. Quite a battle. Glad no lions were hurt
Wow ! This is an epic sighting for sure. So much going on and I really don't want it to end . Kambula lion dynamics is at play here. Thanks for posting!
I appreciate lions hunting abilities because, despite being a cat, they aren't really ambush predators. They will often let the prey know they're there and just dare the prey to stop them.
What an incredible capture on video! That was pure chaos. The dust they kicked up just added to the mayhem. Thank you for letting us ride on your safari vehicle vicariously. ❤

I really love lions and really respect these wonderful creatures even more than most people... Imagine how some people make money and how much they lie for their daily life, how much they cheat and flatter and yet their greed is endless. But the lions have to fight every week to survive with the same natural tools they have like their teeth and claws and risk to death to eat only a meal... I think they are very innocent and simple compared to us❤ we are wild creatures In fact
I wish i were born a lion or wolf sometimes. To have a life meant only to survive. Simple yet so very challenging. To live in a world where i must hunt for my next meal sounds so much better than living in a world where i trade paper for food tbh. Nature is wonderful
First- albeit the whole pride is there, the that KAMBULA MOM lioness pretty much single handedly caught and held on and brought the cow down. Unlike the rest of the pride members she undaunted held on and did not loose the grip in number of occasions when all run and the other buffalos tried to horn her into the air. She did not let go until the cow was sure to be taken down beyond repair and even then was the last to move away. Second, watching the other buffalos lick then fallen family member and the obvious sadness and concern is hearth wrenching. Sooo much respect for these beautiful beings who many think I worth trophy hunting- these buffalo certainly care about their family more than the trophy families care for eachother. Third, the vehicle surrounded by buffs and lions in all this?! Don’t mean to be negative but that seriously does not look too clever to me. Fourth - ironically the 2/4 now Quarta Kambula males are the brothers of the lionesses and the half older brothers of the mini KambulaShwakas - what goes around comes around and so sad the family lost their meal to now estranged grown up brothers especially that lioness mom who so formidably brought the cow down.
What an epic sight! The battle between lions and buffalo captures the intensity and raw drama of the wild. Watching these animals fight for survival is both thrilling and awe-inspiring, showcasing their strength and natural instincts. Thank you to the team for capturing this precious moment and bringing viewers such an unforgettable experience!"
Excellent video. Other than hyenas and wild dogs, I doubt other animals realise the strength of numbers. If the buff herd worked together, they could easily drive off the lions. And if the lion pride acted as one unit, they might drive off the two males. The males were out-numbered 2 to 13, although there were juveniles in the pride. However, it seems to me that even in a group, individual animals fear being hurt...unlike hyenas.
I doubt humans truly realise the strength of numbers. If humans worked together, they could easily colonize Mars. I've experienced human egoism, cowardice, and self-preservation, very much the same as it goes with the buffalos. If you look back on your life, there are so many decisions you would made differently. But, when you make a new decision... well, so many new mistakes...
Now there is an idea - may the god send humans to Mars with no return ticket., so that the Earth be returned to all the species who respect it and appreciate it and contribute equally to the life’s cycle not just exhausts all the earth resources and offer nothing in return but mountains of inorganic waste.
@@luvmyaussie9561 The main problem is - nobody knows god's address! Second problem - maybe all this waste is a process to something new and great we cannot comprehend yet? Just thinking.
Awesome video, so Kambula pride were hunting buffalo, than Floppy Ear appeared and got chased away by all of his younger brothers/sisters and their mothers Mothers who are not only sisters of them female he has been with and probably was there But also sisters of the males who came later to chase all their nephews and sisters away from the kill The female with Floppy Ear ( K12) is sister to the 2 boys who in the end got the kill, just recently ( few months) left them and has been with Floopy Ear ever since The same Floopy Ear who's fathers are the reason she was forced to leave the pride with the 2 boys who now chased away their natal pride Ndhzengas were no where to be seen I love Lion dynamics you just cant script this any better
Cool, thanks, now it makes some more sense from the lion dynamics point of view. That is very interesting for many of us, but usually difficult to find out from the videos.
The guide said it correctly that this was the best interaction that he has ever seen. It is undoubtedly the best EVER I’ve watched . You could feel the 🐃 🐃’s pain & anguish for their fallen comrade, as well as the lions fight for survival. What an amazing battle to witness. The lionesses & their young dealt the death of the buffalo and then here come the 2 Kings to reap the benefits . Then again without those two defending the territory they risk losing their young to other marauding males. I guess that’s the trade off they must endure. Amazing footage. Keep um coming as that was the best ever.
Imagine if the whole herd attacked the lions every time the lions tried to hunt them. They would never be able to get a single kill. It’s always 1 or 2 buffalo against the whole pride and they can’t do anything to the buffaloes
If there were more brave buffalos. Their member wouldve survived. They just had to do what they were doing in the end chasing the lions off. Super crisp footage
Beautiful sighting thank you i just pray they were able to get another buffalo those poor girls and younsters worked so hard for a meal and the two males chase them away they eat first sure but their are many mouths to feed. They needed two or three buffalo to all eat
Without the males keeping threats away the pride couldnt exist they are still incredible hunters but them protecting the tribe is far more important than helping hunt for food
You brought back a very old memory .. many years ago I ran game lodges in the moremi and I remeber a ranger telling us a story one night … we had no tourists in it was off season.mthis ranger was saying he had a very arrogant group of tourist on the back of his vehicle. Anyway they saw a male lion take down a buffalo alone and seemly it was all very impressive and he was taking loads of pics because he knew no one would belief him. The tourist turned round and said can we go know, I’ve seen lion and I’ve seen buffalo what next . The names of the tourists went round as bush telegraph does
Well! I've never seen them try to revive their already dead partner and protect them against lions! This was so interesting to me. Then, of course, the lion kings came... I remembered an old Hungarian joke about this scene, but I don't think it's understandable in another language... so I won't write it down. Thank you for the video, Judit from Budapest🙏🏻❤️👍🤗
The alpha female that mostly took down the Buffalo on her own and also took a bit of a hit from the other bull that came to rescue did finish the job at the end. It was a great concerted effort by the entire pride. After the Styx males took over the carcass did the pride get to eat at all? Please advise?
That homie buffalo was so loved they were mourning and could not leave him behind. On the other hand, these sightseers are way TOO close. They have some big balls.
This is the best video I’ve seen of lion vs cape buffalo especially since you were right in the middle. That must have been incredible!! I could have watched this for hours
At first I thought the Lionesses were being lazy not helping their friend with the 2nd buffalo that was caught, but they obviously knew she could handle it herself. Iv also never seen a lion suffocate prey like that before, Im guessing she is the matriarch of the pride and the expert hunter.
Awesome stuff Lads. No stupid music, no Ralph Fiennes' annoying, overdramatic voice, no clashing of cymbals and banging of ridiculous drums. Just the sounds of nature and natural occurrences - just as it should be. Well done boys - you blew 'Savage Kingdom' out of the water!
I agree! And I would add no split second shots jumping from frame to frame, just one smooth motion.
The buffaloes waited too long to rescue their comrade.
God sits back with a bucket of popcorn, watching his carnivores eating his vegetarian animals ALIVE!
Professional wildlife photographers would risk their necks to be blessed with the chance of getting footage like this. Absolutely kingly.

She was astonishingly awesome 💪🏼🌪️🙌🐾
She was not brave it's called strategy bro she knew I have backup
Observe when she leaves buffalo
the one lioness is pretty sure the mom, since she is the oldest than the other lioness.

After the lioness does all the work here comes Kambula lions controlling the prey. Nature at it best
She must have attacked the herd bull.
The herd is leaderless.
@@JohnMoore-xf5wy didn't you watch the video?
@@falanajerido875
Twice.
@@JohnMoore-xf5wy It was a kinda small buffalo. Possibly a female.
Great footage here! Looks like a lesson learned for the young lions which did a great job. Crazy how the big males come in when it’s all over. Quite a battle. Glad no lions were hurt
Thanks for watching!
The large male will keep the hyenas away, but most of the time the big male will be out patrolling his territory
thank you so much mala mala for this virtual safari love the kambula pride and love the kambula boys they are my favourite coalition

Way better than Netflix, to be honest.
They should have been that more aggressive before the other buffalo got killed.

Ndhzengas were no where to be seen
I love Lion dynamics you just cant script this any better
The Ndhzengas rocked up the next day and chased off the 2 young males
Are two Ndz males coming to be ready nearby two Kambula boys?
Cool, thanks, now it makes some more sense from the lion dynamics point of view. That is very interesting for many of us, but usually difficult to find out from the videos.
The 2/4 now Kambula Quarta males are the brothers to some of these lionesses and uncles and 1/2 brothers to mini Kambulaswakas.
Buffalo are the only grazer who stands up for each other, their like a large community of friends & family.

But always keep your measures of protecting yourselves.

Looks like my paintball match last weekend.

It was a great concerted effort by the entire pride. After the Styx males took over the carcass did the pride get to eat at all? Please advise?
The pride killed another buffalo that nights. And later the Ndhzenga males chased off the 2 Kambula males
Lioness ratio is quite high compared to its prey
Haven’t seen the Kambula Pride in ages! Are the white lions still with them?
