Lions vs Elephants Life on the Edge For decades, the Savuti pride on the western border of the Chobe National Park in Botswana has ruled supreme. This pride of lions, numbering up to 40, hunt elephants. It's become their specialty because lions don't normally go after these gentle giants. Life on the Edge is a story of a few lionesses and elephants who are forced to leave their pride to travel north to the Chobe River. The animals adventures while just trying to survive. We take you along. It gets a bit brutal. But nature is sometimes like that. Available worldwide

Thanks so much for sharing this great doc! Not even size can backen down the lion, truly king of the beasts. I also enjoy the social bond of these elephants 🐘 too and how they all mourned the loss of their matriarch. Both animals are so very alike and special! I like the challenges that each must endure if they are to survive. The resilience of both lions and elephants is incredible. I hope that there are more docs like this brought to KZread by the future!

What a beautiful and endearing animal video. One of the best I’ve seen in a long while! Elephants seem to have patience and provide loving care to its orphans and little ones. They seem to show empathy to lost or dying elephants. Although they can be aggressive to each other and predators, they just seem to be such caring animals. They seem to have to the same or similar family structures in the caring of others in their herd or prides. It’s beautiful to see in each of their family dynamics. The only thing making me sad is that the male lions killing the offspring of other male lions. Then to hear that the elephant matriarch was killed by lions. They grieve for one another.

First, besides being childishly unrealistic, its also illegal, for a reason, and would sooner end up in tragedy than anything else. The production company would probably face stiff civil penalties and would lose any license granting access and thus destroying the reason they are there: TO DOCUMENT NATURE! I don't really get what is up with you people, if you are children or simple adults, but it would be extremely odd to take one's chosen field, especially a niche one and then work to undo it, both in a literal and metaphorical sense.

Poor Jabu . Mother earth is so nurturing but at the same time can devour you. R.i.p. Jabu .

The desperation of the elephants throughout this documentary is extraordinary and very sad. It’s such a delicate balance of survival for all the species that exist in those wildlands. But watching highly intelligent mammals struggle to survive and leave their young behind to die when they cannot save them is just so heartbreaking. We need severe punishment for people that harm and exploit all endangered animals. They are struggling enough as is.

*I LOVE NATURE VIDEOS.* I can watch allday!

Loins and elephants have always been my 2 favorite. Elephants because how they always take care of their own. Even if they are injured they won't leave them behind. As for the lions? I love the mane on the male lions. They are so beautiful, proud, and majestically fierce. Thank you for posting this video. Very well put together. Your narration was very informative suspenseful and exciting. Great job!

I love it when the narrator says the females have no choice but to deal with the 2 new males. So they don't have to deal with it, the females can just leave and go start somewhere else. I've watched it in other documentaries and the new males are like well that didn't go as planned. Females control the pride period, if they don't like new males the females will all gang up on them and let them know they aren't welcome here and if the females like the new males they will stay and have their babies. Gotta love lion life.

Awww poor jabu was suffering. Rest in peace buddy. It’s depressing how namsa lost everyone she got close to.
