Epic Ambush - Lions Attack Buffalo - Duba Plains
A pride of lions stalks and attacks a female buffalo and calf. The buffalo herd makes a feeble attempt to rescue the mother but backs off.
Filmed at Duba Plains in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.
Years ago, when the course of the river changed, the lions and buffaloes found themselves in a unique situation after being left stranded on a 200-square meter island. The lions had to learn to adapt in order to survive. And so they did. These Duba Plains lions stalk swamps, swim in deep water and hunt by day, attaching themselves to their prey and following their every movement.

the other two buffaloes were like, "it's rude to disturb people having dinner", "you got it, bro, let's stay clear".

The real life Lion King reboot. That little Simba looks so much like the original one. Amazing just amazing work. I'm blown away Disney, five stars.
At least the music on this video wasn't the loud , crazy , obnoxious, irritating type I have heard on other videos. Love the video
Great Parents. Took The kids out and got them a nice fresh steak dinner. Family Time. Nothing beats it.
This video was so realistic compared to all the others I have watched. Anything I've watched on Nat Geo, though very good can't compare. Well Done!

Do you like nature or primal violence. I see the balance. Some feint of heart cant accept nature is not always beautiful. Its tragic. But for the death of 2 whom were 2 slow. Leaves room for others to grow strong and pass traits to next generation. But I will say anyone with a slight but of empathy will for bad for the baby and its mom.
To layer music over such a raw act in nature is just absolutely stupid

Music helps to emphasise an event... it helps to strengthen an emotional response, or to guide that response to a particular emotion. It depends on what you're going for in a video (excepting technical reasons such as this one).

usually we've seen buffalo put up a greater defense where the whole herd will come and make a stand... mb this pair had strayed too far away... stay with the group!

Beautiful camera work. One of the few good quality videos without the crappy music and loud talking!!

Question ? It takes something a lot nastier than that for me to get offended. Why don't you try something like this that god says: The bible Malachi 2:3 "Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung (shit) upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it." Now that's what call nasty! Don't you?

I was just thinking how bad I feel not being a vegan, but then also thought about how gently we can raise animals for their best welfare and most peaceful death. (I'm a vegetarian at the moment, but that's worse than only eating meat. Think milk cows and egg hens.)
Is it me or does it look like the other buffalo's were trying to help the lions instead?? Seriously at 1:13 in the video the approaching buffalo attacks the captured buffalo like some Mafia thug saying "This is what happens when you do the family wrong Saul."

Those buffalo are dangerous as hell especially when they use their numbers to chase off lions but lions have been playing this game with buffalo for a long time and know how its done.They don't always succeed but when they isolate one ,especially a mother with calf its like getting an appetizer with your meal.
Finally some good quality video
Great video, Lesley. !!

Incredible footage!
terrible but fantastic images Lesley ! We all know that Nature is cruel , but this belongs to the universal "natural selection" . We , as Human Beeing are doing much worth , for much less legitim reasons !... Anyway , your videos are great and you deserve to be on National Geographic . Cheers
Great footage. Good job.
Lions are incredible beasts and of all the cats, their hunting style is my favorite to watch. It's a weird feeling watching predators take down their prey because I feel bad for the animal who's dying slowly and terrified, but I feel good for the hunters because they get to eat and live another day.
Very high quality video!
Those two buffalo could have easily saved their friend. I don't know why they didn't.

'Easily'. Do you see the humans who stand around whilst one is being attacked? It's not how 'easy' it is, but how beneficial to oneself and one's community it is. The buffalo do better by sacrificing one of them so that others can get away without injury, instead of losing one and possibly two more, or having one die and two be gravely injured.

Hi great video. Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this. What type of camera are you using? Also how do you keep the frame so steady and not make it move around? Everytime I try to take wildlife videos, the frame keeps on moving around.
very nicely done...thanks.
Even in this situation...kitties are so cute!
A really excellent video. Great camera work, editing, composition and apt sound track. Thanks very much for sharing/posting. Be interested to know what Camera and what software for the edit phase (Windows user - Not Macs). One minor point - "200 sq metres" is kind of small ! Should it have been 'kilometres' .... ?
I have same question as well, whether they have been filmed in' The Last Lion', if so it cant be better, WOW
'Dubya' plains? Possible Bush family holdings?
wonderful musical accompaniment to the video. my comps.
Wow! The buffalo cried for help ..... help returned ..... help surveyed the situation .... help turned back around & left. CTHU!!!!

The lion would actually out run the buffalo and tire it out the they would die they did not help because ir was a lost cause even if they did help he still would have died from the wounds
Amazing
Buffalos always are very strong to be killed easily ..but this time it happen when lions don't have alternative...Its good video to watch either.
is this silver eyed been filmed in ' The Last Lion'?
I've noticed lions don't try very hard to put the kill bite on mature buffalo; I guess they're simply too big for them to effectively choke
Hey Lesley! Joey Clift here. I'm a researcher on "Ultimate Animals", which is an upcoming show on the National Geographic Wild network here in the United States. We're doing a segment on the lion, and we were wondering if you owned this footage? We'd love to potentially include parts of this in our lion segment. If you own it and are interested in licensing it, let us know ASAP! Thanks in advance for your reply. - Joey Clift Senior Researcher Ultimate Animals
I think the lionesses deliberatly left young lion to suffocate the buffulo, in order to training young male lion killing skills.
this is sooo goood :)
is that Ma di Tau and her three new cubs
If buffalo knew their capability the lions would never have a chance to kill them, but fear makes them stay away :)

the buffalo want to help but theyre scared of the film crew getting too close and making noises. Notice they avoided the front of camera area. Poor thing.
It's nice to see the real version of this video, I saw why Silver Eye lioness was off to the side, she was killing cubs in her pride, I can't remember the name of the documentary, anyway this is Fantastic. Some of the comments on this video are really funny lol

Impressionante!
The King had a little lunch all to himself, sweet. These cats can't live off of rabbits and birds that fall to the ground, and we're spoiled as humans to be able to microwave a burrito when we want to. I can't even begin to wrap my mind around being a species that has to do this to eat to live.
How is Silver Eye allowed near the pride if she killed one of the lioness's cubs?
Dam! Carl buddies dip on him and jr😓
Whew! Now THAT is gruesome.
4:12 wtf this lioness killed the cubs of her sister/ cousin? WHY? any video of this story?
Calves can be too actually. There's a three video series of a lion pride trying to kill a cape buffalo calf that's being protected by a rogue male. Took a long time for them to kill the calf.
is silver eye partially blind?
nice
The cubs have manners let the older heads eat first then eat
why does this video ends so soon, you must have recorded much more than 6,31 minutes in that spot.

Survival of the fittest, tough world to be in!
The two Buffaloes wanted to help. But finally decided not to risk their lives trying to save their friend, wise choice. Especially with the rest of The Lion Pride coming.
To the ones who drove and took the video, you have no right to intrude in a big 4wd with a noisy engine, please respect nature
遊客太靠近了,牛群不敢來救援
they are ( both) NOT killed. They are both eaten alive ...
never rely on your friends to come to the rescue..
