Yeah. The only thing is I wish I could see the whole gory hunt and not just jump in towards the end. For those who don't like blood and gore they can choose not to watch real nature in action- red in tooth and claw not edited like the David Attenborough and natgeo programmes which only tell half a story.

I have watched thousands, probably tens of thousands, of scenes of animals taking down prey and this was definitely one of the more graphic. The buffalo struggling to breath, his face getting eaten off, definitely not for the faint of heart. Could you guys release the uncut version at some point? We'll watch it no matter how long it is.

That's quite unusual that a strong healthy bull buffalo couldn't shake a lioness from her chokehold. She must've been extremely determined.

They were quick and efficient. Are they split because they are a “super pride” and too much competition for food? The bull did not put up much of a fight. Maybe it’s better with the split, seems like the lionesses are super huntresses. So good to see them thriving.❤️

It's amazing how long some buffaloes last when they have 10-15 lions all clambering over them. That male buffalo didn't look to be much of a dugga boy either and looked to be fairly fit. I wonder why he was all alone.

Hi Barry. It is a common misconception that 'dagga boys' or 'bachelor herds' are all old males - there are bulls of varying ages in many groups. And it took us a while to get to where the lions had caught this bull after they initially ran in - in that time most of the struggle happened.
