It’s tough to watch if you’re an animal lover, but it shows nature as it is intended to be. Predators and prey. The baby buffalo was lost from the herd, which is not uncommon. The herd is actually less than half a mile away, but the baby is too young to catch up.
Our guide explained that often times male lions will run into herds of buffalo specifically with the idea of creating confusion so the babies will get lost. What you can’t see in this video is that under the tree where the lion comes from is another dead baby buffalo that he killed.
This lion seemed to know what he was doing. And for those who feel we should have saved the buffalo, I understand the instinct to save the animal, but on safari you don’t do that.
The lion has just as much right to live as that buffalo, and lions live by killing animals. If that isn’t something you can understand, don’t watch this video.
All the people getting mad at the Lion for eat meanwhile those same people also eat animals, but have no problem with that. Only difference is the Lion caught his food and killed it fast while humans farm their cattle in poor conditions, abuse them and then slaughter them.
