Place: Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, Greater Kruger national Park, South Africa.

Date: 9 January 2017

Description: After following this one female that was very alert and walking very specific, she lead me right to this buffalo in an opening where I could film her perfectly from the top of the river bank. It was extremely windy so lioness also had that in her favour. While she got into position, the others started flanking out strategically. From there the battle started which in the end lasted for one and a half hours. These lions were young and inexperienced. Not one went for the throat and eventually them and the buffalo got tired, so there were rest pauses in between. Eventually some lions started eating it alive from behind. One persistently choked it by biting the buffalo’s nostrils close and suffocating him like that.
