That maneuver the Lion did around the Buffalo's neck... that was some MMA shit
all combat sports are developed from the animal kingdom my friend , just look at monitor lizards wrestling , and wrestling came from africa where those lizards are abundant.
Ikr that was one badass lion
@Mike Hawk Yeah, the lion dodged the strike from the horns, they're very good at this from fighting each other.
lol
Lol I can kill that lion with my skinny stick ...😎😎
LOL the calf is all like, "when's my turn to die?"
+Cherry Pauper That's not funny
+Giovanni 993 Calm down.
Cherry Pauper I feel bad for laughing at this lol
Spider Rico dude wat were expecting lion is playing hide n seek with them
Haha Lol, this one cracked me open 😂
Lion: “targets calf” Mother buffalo: “tris to protect calf” Lion: So you’ve chosen death.
felt pity
It's Nature Cape buffalos are known to kill lions male bull will scar lion away but female or young has no Chan ce

I think lions know that the bigger the animal, the greater the meal.
That male lion is at the top of his game, strong and fearless.
They shot the Buffalo with gun
@@onebashman2808 Can you check your head is it balancing well on top of your neck?
You damn @@onebashman2808
You can tell this lion specializes on hunting buffalos, that technique was too good and smooth.
Yup agreed! Went for the neck through the top of her horns
Yup. Notice the way he hugged the ground when going for the head. Makes it more difficult for the buffalo to get her horns underneath. Also he had no fear taking it from the front. Normally they try to take it from the back
@@greenkodex take it from the back you say
She was injured and defenseless. She and her calf was dead anyway
It looked like the lion was going for the calf but then the mother tried to protect it and so the lion switched to the mother instead
Killing machines. His technique was top notch.
Hell yeah!
That doesn't matter, once you have the bite to the neck, it's over
Michael. RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ female buffalos are more aggresive when there with the cavs and even if his leg what not injured he stilk wouldent stand a chance what did that leg do nothing alright then all id does it help him stand and she was in defense more and she hit the lion in face with a horn! but lion ate that hiy and ate her.

Mother: is being murdered Calf: ok
and what else is it supposed to do according to you, genius?
@@hazardeur this was satirical
@@cheesehouse2522 my bad, the joke was so good that I didn't see it. you got yourself a burner there. hell, i'm still rolling on the floor while typing this
@@hazardeur no need to be a smartass i just corrected you
Funny comment. Don't pay attention to that Hazardeur loser.
WOW a very intelligent Lion, he approached silently and dodged the Buffalos sharp horns and fliped over her at the same time clamping onto the bottom of her neck, and using his body weight to drag the her down and suffocate her windpipe. What a great kill by a great hunter, definitely a high class quality lion this one.
thanks ! I'd have never known that watching exactly that in the video !
*@Mr. Positive :)* Well ..what I saw in that video was an opportunistic kill.... A cripled buffalo is hardly a "high class quality" hunt. It was so devoid of all risk , rather than doing it together, the other lion (after having stretched his legs) went after the calf......
U know the Lion wants to eat, it doesnt give shit if u think is a good hunter or not or if its ethical or not :P The king must eat and that injured animal was an easy target, fast food... ;)
Mr. Positive :) lol
You have to give it to the mother. Defending her calf is the most important thing, even if she becomes prey. She'll rather go down instead of her child, though the Lion got the best of her. As you said, flipping over her horn and locking down on her neck to suffocate her was instinctive genius. Wished we could of seen the calf get taken down as well.
He's all like "I don't need them females to get me food!"
Takes 3 or more lionesses to take down a buffalo and hes like "get down bitch"
Probably this lion had been ejected by it's family, most likely it's Father. Both of them as 2males. Nature is so cruel and scary.
they never do or never have , it;s just the hierarchy in 99% of animal kingdoms the female gets the food and watches cubs , the male protects the lands , defends the family and puts his life on the line working everyday bit like how humans were before the world became corrupted and is now falling to shit.
not ejected , they want to leave about 2-3 years old because it's their calling to be alpha it's in their nature. plus they would be equivalent to an 18 year old in human society , where the children would go to live on their own usually unless they are needy and dependent and wasteful children
Lioness hunt for herself and your cubs, lion hunt alone
That buffalo was literally pissing itself out of fear. Can’t imagine the terror of doing your best and ultimately having a huge beast crunch your windpipe
Man that lion goes for the calf, suddenly understands that the mother is a problem and decides to head on take care of her first.....and makes it with ease. That's good.
A very dangerous frontal assault. But this lion is consummately skilled and brave. He almost got gored at least twice, one just missing his head. But he knew his prey and had confidence in his own unmatched skills as a killer.
+Okechukwu A. Now this is a beautiful resuming of the fight, great job man
+Okechukwu A. Agreed, it seemed to be very experienced and skilled, as you can see how he rolled with the buffalo's gore-strike. You usually see lions literally get tossed in the air by a strike like that, but he actually used it to flip around the neck and get a strangle-bite underneath the buffalo's throat.
+Okechukwu A. top notch
Yes those horns just didn't seem to be sharp enough because they hit home into the lions belly but did nothing
He was trying to go for the calf and then just made a split second decision to go for the big guy.
That lion looked 500 pounds and healthy,when a lion looks like that any prey is done !
yeah keep finding excuses male lion are stronger than the pussy male tiger soorry mate but that is the truth pur and simple
heithem nouira Nope, iam neither but the Cape buffalo looked strangely small, and tigers average body weight is more heavy than a lions most of the time.
***** But doesn't that buffalo looks strangely small....
***** Looks domesticated.....
Michael. RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ And it was injured you can see in the beggening it was limping
I’ve been watching nature videos for 2 decades and this is easily the best kill from a lion I’ve ever seen. Perfect technique. The mother had no idea what was on her until the male Lion was literally right behind her and he actually flipped himself on top of her to dodge the horns and then clamp onto the neck for an almost instant kill. The calf was so confused, probably having never seen a Lion, that it couldn’t even react, just in complete shock
The loud engine contributed to the lions stealth drastically
Gotta love how the calf was like, "MOM WILL YOU HURRY UP? YOUR TAKING FOREVER! UGH! I'M GOING OVER HERE."
I'm in awe of and admire their athleticism in conjunction with their huge size. That flip move the lion did was awesome. SICK.
Baby calf to mother: “hey mom, when you’re done wrestling, can we PLEASE get back to our afternoon walk…?!?!🤕
I love how the baby calf walked away casually while the mom is being strangled.
U got the best channel on KZhead..love seeing how these animals live..keep up the good work👍
Thanks so much! I'm glad you think that :) We will work hard to bring you the best footage from the wild.
***** Wild dogs live in a very structured and loving society, even tho they are brutal killers.....just as hyenas, except with less ritual, and not nearly such strange rituals as hyena. I would prefer to see wild dogs killing hyena. There are plenty of both on YT. But we all have our opinions and favorites. GL,
***** Your visions of nature are worse than a Kardashian.
yeah i agree
Just awesome video. .very powerful Male Lion. .really a King

@@baldihilmi3743 ??
Killed it single-handedly. Techniques on point
The power and courage of a male lion is unlike any animal ever
The calf was like "Ah, Cool, a lion, Anyways which was the grass I'm supposed to graze on? Mom? Mom stop playing with the lion ur so boring."
1:05 the attack was so scary it made the buffalo pee herself lol
love how the little one just stands there
@Butch Heidi Very true, haha
Bravo my man. Funny how piratically EVERY wildlife programme tells you male lions are crap at hunting.
Mr_LoL , As you can see for yourself that they are NOT! That's why it pays to always do own research, instead of listening to what ignorant people say. The male lions kills are even better than the lionesses-- they do it beautifully.
They don't say they're crap at hunting. Male lions are stronger and stockier but way less agile than female lions. Each of those has it advantages and disadvantages. But it is most definitely true that females do most of the hunting and make most kills in a pride.
@@Joddit males have to hunt on their own or a coalition before they get their own pride.
@@JT-91 Sure they do. Otherwise they would die. What's your point?
@@Joddit my point is they are fully capable of hunting. The actual issue is the mane which exhausts them faster in the hot heat. Maneless male lions have been known to hunt with the lioness
*It's GOOD to be the KING!*
We have a drive by loin and cheetah park about 20 km from the capital city
mohammed kassim wow!
mohammed kassim Are you from UAE
SUNNI POWER Zimbabwe
mohammed kassim Wow nice beautiful nature you got there.
Calf:mom.. What are you doing? Lion: your turn next
The calf be like, "Hey Mr. Lion, when you are done with mom, I am right by these bushes."
Calf is few days old and most likely did not have any experience with lions. Calf was not aware of the danger and mommy was not able to signal to run.
What incredible power! Poor thing never had a chance against the mighty Lion.
I did not see the video but I can imagine what you just said.
weak af
@@achilles7935 what do you expect when someone is injured
It's injured.
The lion seemed bigger than the buffalo
I love how the first lion was originally going to go after the buffalo calf. But, when the mother buffalo tried to protect its' calf from the lion, it went after the mother and took it right to the ground. Then, the calf also became lunch for the second lion.
Calf standing there be like, "Mom are u ok?"
God I so love to watch the massive power of a lion as they are fearless in their struggle to survive. Clearly I see why they are the undisputed king of beast.
+Happyh0ur888 TankTrouble Online On the research I did yes hippos kill more humans but where did you get the hippos kill more lions than lions kill hippo im a zoologist I really want to know
Happyh0ur888 TankTrouble Online Which though
+Happyh0ur888 TankTrouble Online what you been smoking? lions have always been the king of beasts and they always will that's something that won't go out of fashion or style.
+Happyh0ur888 TankTrouble Online you got a problem and you need to get professional help. The whole world knows the mighty lion as being, the UNDISPUTED, KING OF BEASTS. And I saw more than one doct on lions where they persued a hippo as prey, hippo was close to water and ran into the water, scared for its life, just like you would be.
+Happyh0ur888 TankTrouble Online Go on I just thought you would have some evidence I am studing lions next year when I get finished with jaguar I thought I could learn some facts before I studied them but nevermind carry on
Bruh why are people in the comments critiquing the lions hunting skills😂they are natural hunters dude.
Mother buffalo: GET AWAY FROM MY BABY! Lion: Oh, you're approaching me?
You've got to love these conservationists who fly around the world, to sit in vehicles with the engine running the whole time, to watch wild life. Great for the planet.
the paradox in this video is insane .. something so awesome but so saddening too
He is skilled. He quickly got under to grab the throat.
Perfect kill - One bad ass lion
The king of jungle The king of beast 🦁 Lion is true warrior 🦁
Tigers are far superior
@Alexis Jones The lion fanboys do lol
Excellent video! Thank you!

The Buffalo was pissing herself the whole time lmao I probably would have too though to be fair.
Lol because your a candy ass.
cashshawn I bet he knows the difference between "your" and "you're," though.
***** STFU
0:49 brilliant. One of the rare times you'll see any lion get on the throat of a buffalo before it makes a sound, alerting herd members to come to its rescue
When you're caught between the jaws of death, all you can do is pee yourself
I was gonna say...I'd piss and shit myself, too if I had a 400 pound lion on my throat.
so sad. The lion put all his pressure on the neck.
Poor thing starts pissing itself in fear at 1:05
Stress. Combined with hampered (by the attack) body functions.
Lasted longer that i would have.
She starts pissing herself because that's what happens when your losing air when getting choked.
@Best of the best ur weird bro🤣
@Best of the best thats cool bro u just phrase it weird asl
1:05 Lion: Literally hangs on the Buffalo's neck. Buffalo: Hold up I gotta piss.
buffalo: RUN CALF RUN THEN!!! calf: what am i supposto do??
Damn what an awesome lion. taking down a buffalo alone can be rare occurrences indeed.
0:47 TEXTBOOK submission. This lion must know Jiu Jitsu also.
Woman: "I'm shaking" The buffalo LEGIT BEING SUFFOCATED: "😑 Am I a JoKe To YoU?"
▪️ She was shaking , while the Buffalo was pissing . 🧊
One of my top 1 favorite predators of all time
Buffalo was great mother because she sacrificed her life to save her calf
Until also the calf died, since it was standing there like an idiot instead of running away
She didn't save the calf dummy
Awesome video! Impressive males. They looked like the two remaining Selatis.
Guy Smiley, That's what I thought also. Those selatis were the professionals at buffalo takedowns, lol.
This proves that males can just as good or better at hunting then the females
they have to . when they get evicted from the pride by their fathers , they need to be able to hunt , they learn it early from their mother
The Fallen Angel obviously they're just lazy
It proves that they CAN hunt, not that they're better at it. The buffalo was already limping...
That was an experienced male. Not his first kill, even tho cow was injured, he made beautiful move to get to her. Sorry for cow and calf, but such is life. The steak I ate last night came from a cow that was killed, lol. Just in a "civilized" manner, by our standards. TY for great posts, keep 'em coming.
a top experienced male hunter ! congrats ! a perfect kill ! so sad for the mom though.. she was peeing out of fear poor thing :( thats natute after all.. cruel !
Strange enough ! Never heard of some one commenting something "similar" when a MALE Buffalo is being killed: "So sad for the DAD though" !!!
Tiger fan was surprised to watch this video🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 🦁👍
Wow. The Buffalo literally Pissed itself from fear. I don't think I've ever seen that before.
That's hilarious foolish mother buffalo
That was brilliant! Nice capture too!
It seems like a video game - like a human player was controlling this lion like an avatar. That was insanely smooth and skillful
calf was cheering for his mother 👏👏
The calf continued to graze because he did not understood that mommy is in danger and he should have run. It could be that the calf is only few days old and is not use to encounters with lions.
Even if the buffalo was injured that must have taken a huge amount of power for that one lion alone to kill her
Not really; it's a freakin Lion.
The buffalo was smaller than the lion. This lion was big.
Great video and glad there was no music to it to wreak it
The calf is like are you my father
the most powerful cat
male tiger
Male tiger
Yes
Siberian tiger fool
Male lion the deadliest.
POWER AND SKILLS COMBINATION AT THE SAME TIME
The calf like "YOU IGHT....YOU IGHT".
I was screaming to the calf through phone " Run baby run and run for your life " 🤦♂️
Lol. me too ...was saying run
@@Junjo11 😄😄
1:05 buffalo peeing while struggling with lion
xD
You wouldn't pee. You'd just shit yourself.
are you still a kid?
if you gotta go you gotta go
You will pee even before attack of lion!
“Dread it, run from it, destiny arrives all the same.”
Calf: "Mom, this is so boring. Can we just follow the herd?"
That is one fine looking lion. Solid and healthy and in his prime. No trouble at all taking out that buffalo on his own.
Lion buries his food like my cat does for some reason.
That lion is just... perfect.
Nice footage. Well done.
I have seen many heavy male lions. But, this lions skill makes it an elite class. He brilliantly changed his target and single handedly brought it down. I never seen any lion doing that alone. He is a pro. Hats off to the lion & the person who took the footage👏
The lion seem fatter and heavier than the buffalo.
Is beautiful!
Fair play to the mum for trying to defend her calf. Nature is savage.
Buffalo be like ..wait let me urinate for some minute
Mother is mother 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
Damn how powerful this lion is!
"Oh, God, I'm shaking..." Maybe you shouldn't have gone to a wildlife park / reserve if you don't want to see nature in action then! Nature is metal as fuck.
Mama buffalo must be thinking 'run you stupid child'
Yall peep the Buffalo pissed herself 😂
This should be a training video for young aspiring lions on how to hunt like a boss.
Lion in the video: So if you see that the buffalo is trying to gore you, flip onto the back of its neck and wrestle it down whilst biting. Just hold on a little longer and that my friends is how to kill buffalo all by yourself. PS: Do not attempt when there is a herd of buffalo nearby, for the prey might call for reinforcements.
Brutal bite force.....
Buffalo must be his favorite meal. He knew exactly how to kill it.
Calf : it’s just a play blw my mother and lion uncle
whole generation is gone, just like that
that was an irresponsible mother breaking away from the herd like that!
It was limping. It must've got left behind.
@@woslow2543 nope..that woman was careless and her child paid the ultimate price
@@brownbuterI agree with woslow. It must have been left behind due to her limp.
What a beast 🦁
Respect to momma for trying ...
Lion is much beautiful!
That's actually Khabib out in nature, free from the constrictions of cage.

Them male lions certainly looked to be in good condition.
No need to use male, because a lion is already a male, and lioness a female
