Sleeping Buffaloes Don't Realize the River Is Flooding Around Them!
At the moment, there is a flood occurring in the Kruger National Park. Watch the moment 2 buffaloes sleep in a dry riverbed, not knowing the river is about to get flooded!

This funny sighting was capture by Mike Kirkman, a long-time guide at MalaMala Game Reserve while on a drive with his guests. We decided to share this footage now because of the flooding that is occurring at the moment from Cyclone Eloise.

Mike spotted these two old buffalo bulls sleeping in the Sand River that runs through MalaMala Game Reserve. Little did the buffaloes know that their slumber would be getting a rude awakening. At the start of the video, you can see the water almost touching the buffaloes, but, within 2 minutes, they are completely underwater.
The buffaloes, still a bit hazy from their nap, slowly make their way out of the water’s way and back to the bank.
The effects of Cyclone Eloise has had meaningful impacts on anyone visiting the Kruger Park.

Finally, one peaceful video on this channel.
nothing peaceful about natural eviction
@happyh0ur888alt Only with natural eviction, you can’t take it personal.. No landlord to blame.
The river peacefully tried to swallow buffalo
...And then, a pride of lions off screen attack and eat the leading buffalo.
@@TudorOwen50s Two male buffaloes are enough to win against a pride of lions.
Amazing that the whole scene at the river changed in less than 5 minutes!
They're called FLASH floods for a reason.
Finally a video on this channel where an animal is not getting ripped alive.
In the African bush, things get ripped alive! That's how it goes for survival. But, there are also some very tender moments in the bush too. Nature is amazing.
ahahahahaaha
😭
@@bushlover4268 brilliant response.you are amazing
Maybe you are on the wrong channel?
I like how the first buffalo that got out just stood there waiting for his friend to get out instead of just leaving. It's just a little bit off camera near the end but you can still see it a bit.
You wrong
Ha I noticed that too 🐃
@@lizzybizzy771 you're talking nonsense

I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵
😅
No it took a cyclone to hit us here in SA to bring the rain...good try though
@@keshaverriah LOL all I can say is: - It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you...
“This is nothing. I can handle this.” “I can handle this” “I can still handle this” “Ok. I can handle this from the shore”.
😂
Lol
They look so chill
Then chilly.
Until they get stuck
Look at the one on the left, he was like having the sleep of his life 😂😂
That was amazing how that fast moving current took over the old bulls' sleeping spot. But, water is life.
Wow! I can see how rivers become so dangerous all of a sudden - These rains will be wonderful for the bush !
The left buffalo's face says "Oh boy, I didn't expect that!"
wrrr
Hahaha so sweet. The look. "hey my warm sand bed is gone" 😂❤️
An old bull and a injured one.. left behind by their herd because they can’t keep up. It’s sweet that they still stick together. The one bull got out and turned around and waited and watched for his friend to follow. Animals are amazing 💕
Wow.. whereu from?
Abderrahim Yoestoy Minnesota U.S. lol why?
@@countrygirlxo7188 just to know you more . Ok?
Abderrahim Yoestoy oh lol I was just confused by the wow I wasn’t sure if it was a compliment or insult 😂😋 where are you from?
@@countrygirlxo7188 hahah ot was a compliment..iam from morocco
They're just like: "oh thats a problem"
Buffalo like "hooman wtf why didn't you tell me!?"
The African buffaloes do not seem to be afraid of crocodiles. By the way, I have never watched a video in which they sleep so near the water's edge. Thank you very much!
Are there still crocodiles in places where there are strong currents?
@@osman.s1405 currents???
@@alfiespruce1485 Then what do you call the movement of this river?
@@LudicrousCunningFox Flood, maybe. As was pointed out by someone else, Cyclone Eloise caused this effect.
@@LudicrousCunningFox stream?
Who had the sigh of relief, as the buffalos reaching the shore
The buffaloes knew the water was coming............they just didn't want to disturb the birds sitting on them.
How quickly that happened really makes one understand what they mean by rapid river and torrents!
Birds on his back like they're all worried. "Oi, you better stand up and get us to safety."
Doot Birds fly lol
Happy to see that your beautiful country is getting plentiful rains.
Wow!! The rains down in Africa! So much water filling that stream and filling it so fast. Glad the buffalo made it to dry land when they did, they may have been swept off their feet. Nice vid guys, thank you.
Great sighting! Buffalo really are stubborn creatures: won't move fast even for a flood. Thanks for posting this amazing moment.
@Levent knight Not lion, lions. Full grown male buffalo will smash even 4-5 lions. Lions aren't hunting adult buffaloes alone, only with pride.
they weren't sleeping just relaxing but they had their eyes on the cameraman the entire time.
Silently plotting how to take out the guy 😂
That 2nd Buffalo 🐃 Just like the feel of water on the ol nuts 💯💯
The buffalo on the left, he's looking like he's never seen water before
You might look the same if you woke up in the middle of the night to find yourself submerged in water to!
Finally rain in southern Africa Thank God.
Clickbait doesn‘t exist in their vocabulary!
ONCE MORE FOR THE PPL IN THE BACK
This channel is so real, it’s scary!
wrg
There's a river in Limpopo province, South Africa called molotosi that use behave like that. 1 minutes it's dry the next thing it's flooding with water and you can't cross anymore
They were thinking like. Let us get Outta here. It will be Croc time here soon😂
*river overfloat* Buffalo: i dont give a shit, ill walk slowly...
"Man, this is bull"!🐂
Never seen a better explanation of "Africa Time".
"The effects of Cyclone Eloise has had meaningful impacts on anyone visiting the Kruger National Park". I'm truly relieved to hear that. For a second I was afraid that it might just have had meaningless impacts on anybody visiting the Kruger National Park. Phew!
That’s why their called water Buffalo!
Water buffaloes are different from this kind of buffalo. Just look at their horns. This one has like W shape while the water buffaloes are more of a C pointing at the back
They realized pretty quickly what was happening, but they were so slow to react!
1:52 he's still sleepy and wondering WTF is going on around 😂😂😂 cute buffalo reaction lol
Title : Me : Why don't they realize it? Crocodile : They are under my genjutsu
@Messi Ganteng Nice! A Kamen Rider Build reference.

They have two water sensing devises between their legs that tells them Immediately how high the water is! Then they move!!
The búfalos said " ohh , it seems that there is a leak in the roof " nice and brave animals .
living in the wild, buffalo's always being chased by predators, & for once it gets to close its eyes without dying, & mothernature ends it
No it is due to humans suddenly releasing water from reservoirs
Bro chill they definitely know everything 😂
Wow those water buffalos were completely unaware of what was about to happen to them! Good thing those shocking moment was all captured on film!
Crocodiles: we're coming for you, bois.
That’s one hell of a wake up call
The left one was like wtf? but it beats being awoken by a predator trying to eat you.
Buffalo now knows why after so many years it could take a nap for a long time without getting shredded
Like how his friend is waiting for him! I love buffaloes
Wow they are very relaxed for buffaloes.
Work is water and Buffalo me..sums up my relationship with work..
Crocs are having a really good day
Buffalo one : who let all this Water. Buffalo Two : some Jokers from our village who don't want us to sleep peacefully.
1:58 + looks like the left Buffalo was thinking + Holy-Moly + THAT'S WAS MY DAMNED WETTEST DREAM
Thanks God, Buffaloes are save.
Seeing the water level rising, I literally shouted 'you lazy buffaloes, get out soon'. And realised they were really buffaloes.
I was waiting to see the water get gored to death by these angry buffalos.
When you wake up and you have to sit down on the bed and think for 10 minutes.
That's like when the wife throws water on you to wake you up.
If my wife does that, I'll pee on her face while she sleeps.
I'm sitting up here watching this like "🗣 IF YALL DONT HURRY UP N GET OUTTA THERE"
My soul animal in it's natural habitat.
They are great swimmers,so no problem.
I love the natural sounds birds water no music
Fun to watch!Of course they are aware...they are part of the natural world.
AWESOME sighting and footage! 👌 THANKSSSS Mike and KS! 👍🤗🥰
Are they water buffaloes 😂
Thank God Buffalos are safe
Cor that was quick.. bless one on the right sensed something afoot probably because he a buffalo and there is a group of people watching him and filming while he trying sleep.. normally means big trouble any minute! The other one literally was like I don't want get up yet.. I live in Africa where going to get a drink gets you killed as easily as playing on a busy train line but I waking up being surrounded by the stuff. At least start the day refreshed lol
Getting washed awayyyyyyyyyyyyyy😂🤣😭
The silence that preceeds the storm.
He was sleeping sound. At least they got a bath.......
It would be interesting to watch some big Crocs coming along with the stream to find those buffos... 😋
Show! Belo flagrante da natureza.
Хорошо что есть много воды.
Daaamn that bull’s got some bolls!
🌺👍 Wow quite impressive rise in the water. Interesting to see those buffalo are capable of mistakes too. -H
It was sleeping good 😂
And suddenly,...a Crocodile! Damn,that would be like being led to a restaurant offering free meals.
Excellent video,I love it.Lovely to see the response of the buffaloes.
They can swim so there is need to worry about them.
They were the elders, so probably wouldn't. Just saying 🤷🏾♂️
Oh they were enjoying their little siesta
I was wondering -- 🐊 if in the house-- luckily not. On KZhead first time peaceful buffalo's have seen till now.😁
Every male can relate. It's not a good feeling when cold water hits your balls.
😂🤦
Lol
Quality of life Only wild buffalo No stress
How could anything sleep so sound in that place.
@james challenger I think you are150% correct.but theres always something out there.😱
C'mon mama...I was sleepin here.
Excellent timing with the flashflood and great footage .
Buffalo is a good swimmer
Is it a Buffalo!!! I thought that it is a stone😆😆😆
Water really can creep up on you, it’s scary man
Monday morning Im sure this 2 buffalo 🐃 Stil Drunk 🤣🤣
2:00 wild dogs' favorite part.
Those buffloes look so carefree.. Are lions on soms of diplomatic tour in other territories or what?
Yo buffalos could hear water movement when it's miles away in this situation they knew what's going on they just don't give a fu€k about what's coming 😂
And they say.. these guy can already feel the microwaves coming out of the earthquake. 😅😂
How do they not realize but yet there clearly up
“This is fine.”
At 1:45, that feeling when your bed is wet!
Ohh crap! Did i have a wet dream again?
sudden flow of water , at least there are more water for all the animals to drink
Buffs: But it did not rain, where is this coming from?
