fishindevil Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 WOW....rick you are absolutely right.. ..thats an amazing video,and for the calf to have escaped the jaws of death that many times.. ..he is very lucky,and for the lions to back down,ive never seen anything like it.. ...thanks rick for sharing that with us...cheers
charlied Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 pretty cool..now imagine if spawning salmon did that in the Niagara when one was caught and the all started jumping at a boat!
ilario Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 predators don't have it easy...they often get seriously hurt or killed trying to take down prey... i read a book that researched wolf behaviour (David Meech?) and it when on to explore the amount of injuries wolves recieve when trying to take down moose, musk ox, mountain goats and even white tail deer...lots of broken bones, internal bleeding, and death from hoof kicks and antlers..
danc Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Africa??? HAH!!! Yeah right. That's the gang at Lakair last June fighting over the last Old Milwackee!!!!
DebS Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Wow, that was unbelievable! It's a wonder any of the young ones survive to adulthood. Thanks for posting that Rick!
kennyman Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Thanks for posting that. I had the wife and kids come watch it too. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Very cool how the lions worked together then the buffalo joined forces to rescue the babe .... and attack lions !! I had no idea they would do that. Quick recap.Lion sees steak, lion wants steak, lion chases steak, alligator want steak , big steaks save little steak. They live happily ever after.
lunkerbasshunter Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 wow that was sweet! did i see a crock in that water as well?
Roy Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Amazing piece of footage, Rick. Thanks for finding and sharing it.
Greencoachdog Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Africa??? HAH!!! Yeah right. That's the gang at Lakair last June fighting over the last Old Milwackee!!!! Now that there was funny!!!!
Carp Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 wow that was sweet! did i see a crock in that water as well? Yes, it was a large crocodile fighting over the calf with the lions. Awesome video Rick. Saw one lion get the horns and go flying.
glirw Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Man Buffalos are stupid . That is awesome footage though . Saw it a few days ago on Break .
TJQ Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Quick recap.Lion sees steak, lion wants steak, lion chases steak, alligator want steak , big steaks save little steak. They live happily ever after. lOL... no doubt.. rick that was quite cool!
hydro Posted May 28, 2007 Report Posted May 28, 2007 I dont know about ever but pretty neat. The only thing is I wish they followed that calf around after to see how long it lived. =) I betcha it got picked off within a few days.
Hooked Posted May 29, 2007 Report Posted May 29, 2007 That was awesome! If those buffalo always had that mentality, they would be unstoppable!
