This pride of lions is too big to hunt only buck, so they turn to hunting anything and everything, even massive crocodiles!

This extraordinary sighting was captured on camera by Newton Mulenga, a seasoned guide, during a safari in the Busanga Plains within Kafue National Park, Zambia. Newton shared this incredible story of survival with LatestSightings.com.
Busanga Plains is a unique ecosystem in the northern part of Kafue National Park. Known for its swampy terrain that floods during the rainy season, this area becomes a hub of wildlife activity. Among the inhabitants, thousands of lechwe antelopes and large herds of sable and roan antelopes thrive, providing an opportunity for nature lovers to view these very rare antelope.
On this particular day, Newton's attention was drawn to the resident pride of lions, renowned in the area for their hunting prowess. This pride, led by two lionesses known as 'Killing Machine' and 'Princess', is a formidable force in Busanga Plains. Princess, easily identified by her collar, and her sister, Killing Machine, patrol the area with an eye out for anything that will feed their pride. Their pride consists 13 lions including cubs of various ages.
This pride primarily preys on lechwe. However, a single lechwe is rarely sufficient with thirteen hungry mouths to feed, including growing cubs. Their increasing hunger drives them to target larger and more rewarding prey.
In their relentless search for food, the lion pride cornered a massive Nile crocodile. Stranded in a small swampy area and too far from the safety of deeper waters, the crocodile was vulnerable. Despite its attempts to defend itself by snapping aggressively at the lions, it couldn't match the lions' strategic approach.
The turning point came when Princess, the collared lioness, made a daring move. She leaped onto the crocodile's back, biting its neck with her large canines. The combined weight and force of the lions overwhelmed the crocodile, which, after a desperate struggle, succumbed to the pride.
While lions generally do not hunt crocodiles due to the risks involved, it's important to remember that they are opportunistic predators. In the wild, survival often depends on seizing every available chance for a meal. When faced with the pressing needs of their pride, especially with many mouths to feed, lions can display incredible adaptability and courage.

    • @@floridacracker_The problem is endurance. Crocs use buoyancy to help support their body/weight. On land, they have to rely on their short limbs which only works a short period of time. This is exacerbated by their metabolism. So true crocs are strong on land, but if the fight prolongs, they are easily worn out into a weaken state-in extreme scenarios, they may just die without even being attacked as in some zoos.

If the average length is 17ft then I'd say many reach 17ft+ just like the average length for a human male is 5ft 9in - 5ft 10in and most men you meet usually are said size. Crocs won't stop growing but do slow down in growth once a certain size is achieved. diet and environment play a big part in their size and growth as well. Nile crocs average is at around 14-15ft so it's not something I'd say is rare if there are some that are 17ft+.

They had an opportunity to take down a crocodile in a vulnerable situation which didn't have a large body of water to retreat to. Very cool, but these lions were not at risk of starving or anything, the title is kind of clickbait.
