That kangaroo wasn't trying to find a safe zone, it was planning on drowning the dog bc they are psychopaths. XD That dog would have to be very lucky to win against a kangaroo, a kangaroo could easily kill a dog, especially a domesticated one who are usually alone. Dingo's are a different stroy LOL
I've see the footage, and the dog tried to jump the kangaroo in the lake. Dog was about to be drowned several times before giving up. I do not know if kangaroo was shot, though.
that is exactly what i was thinking too. there are several animals that use the water to just flat out drown others and from what i remember kangaroos are one of the few that do this quite often... i mean why fight when you got arms and are strong enough to just hold the other underwater with little effort, i mean even some birds do this too.
I had a cat that slept in the sink. If you turn the water on it will stay in the sink. It also brought back a lot of fish from the brook behind my house. That cat loved water
I fucking love that I came in thinking the Buffalo was going to have some kind of secret drowning technique like the kangaroo but the answer is actually just that the lions don't want to get their feet wet
I think the lions don’t care about the water being wet in and of itself. They know the buffalo has a tactical advantage in the water. Their taller body type with thinner legs gives them a distinct advantage to the lower builds of the lions who will have trouble getting leverage while those horns are easily able to gore them.
every year we go to our cabin in Montana and there’s almost always a moose and a calf that stay close to all of the occupied cabins and roads. Now I have a better understanding of why they do that!
You missed the best part of the octopus and grouper hunting team: when an octopus feels like the grouper is being unfair, it will "punch" the fish with their tentacles as a way to keep the fish honest!
I swear I am ADDICTED to this guy's VOICE! I follow almost every channel I find you are the narrator on, just because I love the way you "set the mood".
I thought it was fear of contaminating a scarce resource; my reason being that something scarce like a watering hole in an arid continent would lead predators to go out of their way to not contaminate it similar to how some animals clean up their habitats to a degree.
I gotta hand it to you guys - this was one of your best videos! Wild life can and obviously will prevail despite what they are against. It literally amazes me how each animal group educated itself on what their environment gave to them..and then humans *uck up everything, for the most part. Again, awesome job WATop! 😘
Woohoo Moosie Mamas! I thought you were going to say they get close to the roads for the salt laid down to clear the ice and snow. Who knew? You and Steve, obviously! ☺ Thanks for the video. 🏆
Watop my man you are officially my favorite youtubechannel and just wanted to say keep on the good work and entertainment of your pupils... Your videos are my brainfood my friend
You're example for the Octopus and the grouper fish ... Maybe its more Like Men and Dog this kind of hunting partnership 😊 thx always enjoying your Vids 💪😸🐯
1:22 The Buffalo may not "know" the Lyons will eventually give up because they are hungry. That's imputing our thinking on them. They could just be staying in the water because they don't want to get eaten. Eventually, the Lyons give up, but the Buffalo probably didn't think it through.
Buffalo: hehe, cat hate water, me stay in water, cat no eat me. Lion: actually I am a lion, not a cat. Buffalo: Lion is cat. Lions get confused for hours, then leave. Buffalo: me smart, cat hate water, me live. a crow witnessing the whole thing: they actually left because they feared whatever made you stupid, would infect them. Buffalo: whoa, bird is talk? me is surprise. Crow: I regret being a part of this.
I think the grouper and octopus team would be more like a man going hunting with a dog...very different cognitive abilities, but highly successful throughout history
Lions don't really hate water that much. They certainly don't love it like tigers do for example, but will swim if needed. But you are correct in that they are not built for hunting in water. The main reason is that they - like most cats - attack large prey by stalking and then jumping from the rear and biting the neck. 0:05 That way is most advantageous and safe for the cat. Sit with back turned near almost any big cat - they will be quite tempted to attack - playingly or not. Sit with your face turned toward them and they likely hesitate. Well, lion's mobility in water is quite limited, they are not stealthy while splashing, in serious danger or being kicked, and most importantly they cannot really jump that high or long (if at all) when swimming. They essentially have no way of attack with any chance of success so they don't.
WATOP: "Check out how they swim!" Water: /*plop*/ Me: /*laughing my ass off*/ Lion: "...and that was the most traumatic experience of my cub-hood!" Me: /*feeling guilty*/
Water doesn't work all the time. I saw a documentary where buffalo was caught between Crocs and lions while in water. Poor thing suffered all day waiting for night. At night it ran to avoid Crocs and in the hope that she could out run lion in the dark. It ended in tragedy. Sad reality of life.
Actually where the octopus and grouper are concerned, it's not two heads better than one, but ten heads. Since octos have independent "brains" in each tentacle. I love the smiley face version of the grouper, I have a cat like that, not the shaved one I mentioned. But he is dumb as a post, I think he was dropped on his head as a kitten.
🦁Actually,lions are surprisingly good swimmers despite the fact they loathe the water. In fact, they swim as a last resort when getting 2 1 patch of land to another🦁
@@shand6115 you are right. Lions are social hunters. Sometimes they hunt as a teaching exercise for the cubs. Not a serious hunt which often is a failure. Failures and mistakes teach a lot. If the lions are really hungry they will definitely finish that buffaloe because the lions can wait in the shade , hiding and the buffaloe can not remain in the pool for long. He has to get out to rejoin the herd , or to munch the grass. The lions know the waiting game!
‼️‼️‼️YES THEY DO‼️‼️‼️ My friend had a kitten that would take showers, and baths with her. Even when that kitten grew up to be a cat she still loved taking baths. My friend eventually had to keep her cat out of the bathroom cause if her cat saw her go to the bathroom for anything. Her cat would follow her in, and immediately jump in the tub even to the point where the cat learned how to turn the water on, but only to where the water was barely going. She knew it was bad for her cat to take 🛁 baths all the time, and that's why she had to keep her out of the bathroom, but of course her cat would pace or sit outside the door while she was in there, and meow till she got out.
I remember when you had to shave your cat and how funny she looked. My cat was the same, she wasn't grooming herself properly and she looked like hell. Plus she has this really fine fur, like an angora, but short haired. I had to shave her, she was not pleased, but it had to be done, because she was getting stinky. To my amazement, my pure black cat had spotted skin, like a leopard, it was very black rosette shaped spots over dark grey skin! Nobody believed me until I took a pic. Her fur is back and she is better at taking care of herself, she's getting up there, almost 12 so hopefully I won't have to do it again.
So being near a falcon is like being in a walkable city and being elsewhere is like a desolate American suburb where getting supplies is a massive chore!
I hate that humans are causing a mass extinction event, so it gives me special joy to know at least certain animals are benefiting from our success. Moose using roads, animals using scientists as predator repellant, and I'm sure there are more as well. The great irony is that humans love nature, despite our withering touch upon it.
@@TheBestEver1998 I'm not sure I think that is true. Even if we killed off all animal and plant life, we'd still be able to grow microbes with the right nutrients. Not that I look forward to a diet of protein mush or anything, but I do think you are exaggerating the issue somewhat. Humans will always have food, even if it is other humans.
@@TheBestEver1998 Humans have increased food production far faster than population since forever, and technology only makes things more and more efficient.
That doesn't stop the lions. Now they just wait til the Buffalo is to weak to defend itself. Several lions can wait while the Buffalo can't rest watching one or multiple trying to get it
The water buffalo can more easily use all its weapons in the water than the big cats can. It doesn't need to lunge, they do, and the mud is gonna slow them to a crawl. Plus the buffalo could try to hold one of them under the water.
Certain lions regularly swim and hunt in water. Kangaroos often bait animals they could beat on dry land to water because it’s easier for them to drown them.
A low 4 legged thing like Lions and dogs have a big weakness called drowning. Also they have to swim when things that can just stand flat out win in a fight. Only problem is crocs at that point.
That kangaroo wasn't trying to find a safe zone, it was planning on drowning the dog bc they are psychopaths. XD That dog would have to be very lucky to win against a kangaroo, a kangaroo could easily kill a dog, especially a domesticated one who are usually alone. Dingo's are a different stroy LOL
Not really the master was bout to blow that kangies head off

I do not know if kangaroo was shot, though.
And that's why I put a wolf collar on my dog when we are out
If a kangaroo tries to put Ike in a head lock they get their arms full of steel spikes
that is exactly what i was thinking too. there are several animals that use the water to just flat out drown others and from what i remember kangaroos are one of the few that do this quite often... i mean why fight when you got arms and are strong enough to just hold the other underwater with little effort, i mean even some birds do this too.

Yeah exemption not the rule.... just like he said....
Had a cat do that same (just with the sink). He was half norwegian forrest cat, and apparently they tend to be more accepting of water.
Every 1 Of the Cat I own. Did this
The family cat when growing up slept in the sink.
Even if you turned it on.
She would even play with running water.
(Tortoiseshell)
Yeah, for an animal that hates water, my cat prefers to be outside when it's wet and raining.
However, if the cat after you is a jaguar, you are screwed.
Haha yeah they kill efficiently on water as they do on land
Yeah
You will not find a jaguar that will settle for a human as prey because it is starving...jaguars are to skilled to starve.
Or a tiger.
@@jonhinson5701 True. Tigers swim nearly as good as jags.
Wild life is amazing, even more amazing when WATop tells about it.

It makes perfect sense that the grouper isn't as smart as the octopus when they team up to hunt together because he gets to be the dog.

Lions 🦁 hate water 🌊 but some buffalos 🦬 know it😮😮😮
3:32 thats gotta be why! Cats look so uncomfortable from head to toe when wet 😂
Kangaroos actually go in water to try to drown dogs or anything that chases it into the water
Great video. Thanks, Adam.
This sounds like keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. (to me anyway, especially about the birds nesting above the crocodiles)

Reminds me of that one SpongeBob episode where the circle keept the seabear away. Looks like this strategy works in real life too
that kangaroo wasn't using the water as a safe place... it was literally about to drown that dog if it got any closer to the kangaroo.
9:13 😂 I can't bro 😂😂
0:23 if you know you know. 😵
Have you used AI to cut this video??😮
I also noticed that lions are more sexually dimorphic than most other large carnivorous mammals
Tigers watching these videos;
"Hold my beer."
Buffalo: don't come near me or I pee in your drinking water.
All cats are excellent swimmers.
That’s what make tigers exceptional

Is that a water buffalo with no tail at the bottom right corner at 6:10 ? It winked at me..
One question: Who the hell is this Steve you keep referring to?
The cat
The guy in the hoodie
The water buffalo can more easily use all its weapons in the water than the big cats can. It doesn't need to lunge, they do, and the mud is gonna slow them to a crawl. Plus the buffalo could try to hold one of them under the water.
It’s because if a cat tried to rush a buffalo in the water. They will get stomped and gored.
Plou
20:41 Cats and rats and elephants... unicorns playing silly games? Last time I'll be believing the Irish Rovers.
So your theory is that a lion would rather starve to death that have uncomfortably wet fur for a short time? You're a genius.

@17:16 best image ever
Cape Buffalo are so genius they sniff out lion cubs in the bush and stomp them to death. Nip them in bud.
That kangaroo was trying to drown that dog. It wasn't scared that's premeditation
there are actually quite a lot of birds on mordor

I wonder if the octopus thinks of the grouper as an equivalent to a dog. Like when humans hunt with dogs

Thanks
Don't get in the water, please please oh no, there goes our food🙆🏾♂️
Kinda like a circle against a sea bear. Spongebob reference.
the roo isn't trying to get away from the dog. it's trying to lure the dog into the water to drown it.
Monkeys staying near fire I feel is an ancient technique that allowed our ancestors to harness it
This makes Jaguars scarier.
Moral of story: if you are being attacked by a big predator go in water
Until you get murked by a crocodile😂
Only exceptions being a jaguar and tiger
