Buffalo Takes One Last Bath

Buffalo drags lions into a waterhole in a last-ditch attempt to escape them, or maybe it was just thirsty? 😢

Brian Abrahamson ( / afriwild_brian ) had the privilege of witnessing this action unfold. Brian shared his footage and story with LatestSightings.com.
“We were up at the crack of dawn and headed for the camp gates at Berg en Dal. Being first at the gate is always an exciting feeling; the anticipation of what one may find is the best part! We decided to turn right onto the dirt road just outside of camp and headed in the direction of the Matjulu waterhole.”
“As we approached the waterhole, something caught our attention-it was the constant calling of hyenas! The calls were echoing off the mountains that surround the waterhole. We knew that this definitely meant something was going on. As we arrived at the waterhole, we found what all the fuss had been about.”
“Seven hyenas were frantically calling and trying to alert the rest of their clan to the six lions about to make a buffalo kill. The lions had, at this point, already crippled the big bull. Their tactic was simple; they had weakened the buffalo’s back and leg, dropping him to his knees.”
Old buffalo bulls, also known as Dagga boys, can often be found all by themselves. This puts them at a disadvantage when it comes to predators, as there is more protection in numbers. This is a sad lifestyle they’re forced into when they can no longer keep up with the herd. They always like to have a good supply of water, and they’re frequent visitors to the Matjulu Waterhole.
“Despite having six lions on his back and crippled hind legs, the old buffalo bull did not for a moment give up. He fought for close to 2 hours with everything he had to escape. As time passed, he got weaker, and his last hope of salvation was trying to get into the waterhole, which may force the lions to back off due to their dislike of getting wet.”
“He dug deep, and with his fleeting bits of energy, he was able to move a few meters closer. With his nose now inches from the water's edge, he could do not much more aside from prolonging the inevitable. He plucked up the courage and entered the water! The lions let go, and for a moment he thought he was free.”
“As for the lions, they had exerted all this energy, and they were not going to let it all go to waste because of a little water. So, they clawed at the backend of the buffalo from the dry land until the big male took charge and went into the water. He took a hold of the buffalo by its throat and suffocated it, dealing the final blow.”

For most of his life, this Buffalo had it easy and could just eat random vegetation. He did not have to fight a 34083042 pound buffalo with horns who is also in a herd to get a meal.

To face the fact that either there is no god or a psychopath god. If there is one, we'd better stop praying to him, because this is his true creation without human intervention. One that we cannot even bear to watch. The life we're living is built on thousands of years of human intelligence and trial and error. If we were a bit less intelligent, it could be us getting eaten alive by other creatures.
As cruel as this is this is the balance of survival. Life and death in the wild. It is what is!!
The food chain is real
That is just brutal AF.

The front is risky because the Buffalo has horns and can easily gore them. They would also kill the Buffalo if they could, except that it's a difficult prey to kill. So they decide to just continue eating as they're hungry

Buffalo is very kind! He is washing his own meat before Lions can eat it all.
