Huge Male Lion Caught a Warthog, And then the fighting started! Crazy! Kruger National Park!

This morning's sighting was surreal, as I managed to witness these rare events from all possible angles. After watching the footage back myself afterwards, I couldn't believe how lucky I was to see these events unfold. The one Male Lion has a hefty scar on his face from the fighting, as we all know, lion fights are sometimes harsh. The Kruger National Park delivered the best sighting of male lions I've seen thus far on my journey. Stunning! Male Lions in the Southern Kruger National Park! #cats #cat #lions #lion #lionhunting #hunt #hunter #safari #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #pride #lionpride #fight #fighting #lionfight #mapogo #gomondwane #trio #travel #quiet #unfolding #best #rare #onceinalifetime #experience #explore #krugerpark #krugersightings #krugernationalpark #kruger

Skeleton trees silhouette against the sky. Wildebeest casually strolling. A male lion fixated on something in the distance. What a build up to an amazing sequence of events. Wow. Finally our friendly vulture sitting patiently in the tree. Drama at its best in the African bush.🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It was amazing to witness all this in one sighting. Absolutely amazing, it's times like this morning, when one really just sits and take it all in🦁❤️

[@suedehead833]

Excellent footage you captured yet again. Many thanks ✌🏻🦁

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I appreciate you watching, glad you enjoyed it. It was adrenaline all the way, exciting stuff 🦁😁

[@smetlenn6480]

Stunning sighting, I hope the injuries from the fight are not to bad and if they are , that they recover fast 🦁

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

The one male was left with a hefty scar on his face, so i think nothing major. Beautiful sighting this was🦁😁

Beautiful stuff, majestic beasts.❤️❤️💯💯👑

🦁😁. It was a great sighting this my brother. Very special to witness 🙏

[@lenoremeyers6907]

Excellent video

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I appreciate that🙏🦁

[@brendas9085]

When a lion starts picking up speed look out, sheer power! What a thing to witness! Great sighting all 3 together squabbling over a snack, poor lioness lost hers. It must be really hot there now in the daytime, they’ll hunt the bigger prey at night. Too hot to exert themselves over a wildebeest with the sun beating down😊 well that’s how it looks to me…. Thank you again for sharing Kruger !🦁❤️

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Most welcome Brenda. This was truly spectacular to witness. Sheer power and dominance. Small meal to have, so he didn't want anything to do with sharing 🦁😁❤️. Yup, this specific day was 39 degrees outside at 11:45 in the morning. December gets extremely hot in the southern Kruger.

[@northerndeath1394]

Beautiful Boys!!!

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Stunning 🦁❤️😁

[@worknprogress78]

Thank you for another great video. They are some BIG males. Do we know who they are or what Coalition

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

You are most welcome Micha. These are the Gomondwane males. They surely look alot better 🦁🙏

[@emancipatedlionm9215]

Amazing grassland, shrubs, tree trunks with 1 massive male vigorously yet wisely searching for a meal...boom! here goes the small meal which now has to fought over by 2 extra massive males. So the squabble goes on among 3 huge males 🦁🦁🦁for an insufficient buffet. 💥 great pics...great sighting 👍🏾💯 thanks

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It really was a great sighting 🦁. Watching these lions fight over food is really something special. Glad you enjoyed it as much as i did😁

[@holgerawakens7784]

Didn't the big male lion actually steal that warthog from a lioness? great footage, as always!

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Looking back at the video, i caught that moment too. Stunning sighting!

[@fillfinish7302]

the first lion took the warthog from a female .his two brothers felt left out.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It was astonishing to witness.

[@fillfinish7302]

@@krugersafariandbeyond the way he ran from his brothers with the carcass was funny.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

@@fillfinish7302 It was, had a chuckle myself 🤣

[@buffiesilver]

I guess they did feel left out because they were left out 😜

[@Mapogo792]

If a Warthog was as big as a Buffalo and could see at night he would've kicked Lion's ass !

[@dawngoring7881]

Great footage, what beautiful big boys they are fantastic❤

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I appreciate that🙏🦁. This was extremely special to see. Witnessed all this, and just sat afterwards and took it all in. Stunning spending time with them as always 🦁🙏😁

[@helengailtownsend2604]

Now my mind works a pride

[@rezkinginternational]

So who got the hog, lost track of that ?

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

The largest male ran off with it, refused to share with his brothers even😂

[@jayyk31]

Gomos?

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Yup

[@kevinstandow2943]

Blondie seems to be this coalitions leader ? In your dealing what’s your take ? She got the warthog and who wins get her the reward ! No one contesting ? I believe that’s Blondie , She played them perfectly , The earlier video with the three lioness’s the two daughter and the mother was the one who cleaned her a bit and she urinated a foot or two behind her, A vixen .

[@mohamedboudjebha6]

Who is the largest lion in the Kruger?

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Tank from the Gomondwane males, hands down.

[@rezakashi8774]

How much bigger. Do this lion up 300 KG

[@DeeorD]

How exciting! What lions have to go through for a meal is so humbling. ❤❤

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It really is. Such a great sighting to witness 🦁

[@Mapogo792]

If a Warthog was as big as a Buffalo and could see at night he would've kicked Lion's ass !

You felt compelled to say that two times🤣

[@julieamir506]

Poor lioness, did all the hard work, only to get your meal stolen by the big bully ...

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Indeed Julie. And then to top it off, he didn't even want to share with his brothers too. Was a very special sighting to witness 🦁😁

[@robertbechert5380]

HOWZIT MY SOUTH AFRICAN BROTHER, WAS THAT SPLIT NOSE RUNNING AWAY WITH THE CALF, BLONDE AND TANK CAME OVER FOR LUNCH. SPLITNOSE SAID GET YOUR OWN BROTHER'S THEIR'S NOT ENOUGH FOR ALL OF US, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, SEE YOU LATER. THE GOMONDWANE BROTHER'S, THERE TYPICAL BROTHER'S. THAT'S WHAT BROTHER'S DUE TO EACH OTHER. GREAT CONTENT MY BROTHER AS ALWAY'S. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR'S. ALOHA, BIG BEC FROM: THE BIG ISLAND OF HAWAII.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

My dearest Hawaii brother, you have no idea how much i enjoyed this comment tonight. I needed it, after a horrible day. Thank you😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Absolutely loved it! He was like, "I'll take the food, see you boys when i see you" 😂😂😂😂😂. Bless you my dear brother, much love for you and your family ❤️🙏😁💪🦁

[@davidsippel1856]

Always seem to amaze me with such great footage big beautiful Boyz 🦁🦁👑

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Appreciate you watching 😁😁🦁

[@Willowfire26]

Hello, Sir, nice footage! I am only guessing here ;but this fight is more like an argument instead of a territorial battle or a fight for supremacy. Which is a good thing. These brothers will still have a strong coalition. Which will enable them to thrive. Thanks for the video.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

You are most welcome. You are correct, this was a fight for food, not for territory 😁. I'm glad you enjoyed it, very special event to watch unfold 🦁

[@lenoremeyers6907]

Awesome footage

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I appreciate you watching, it was indeed, awesome 😁

[@northerndeath1394]

All that food roaming around!! There fighting over warthog!! Too Funny!!

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It actually is. They ALWAYS catch warthog. ALWAYS 🤣

[@buffiesilver]

Lol funny

[@emtharlan7201]

I guess the two males that wanted the warthog were't too hungry. They didn't even try to get a wildebeest . They're really funny when they act like that. They don't want a meal if they have to work for it but they'll gladly take big brother's food.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

It was kind of funny, specially how he ran away with it after the first confrontation. I was thinking that they would make a move on the Wildebeest.

[@caseG80]

Need a gimbol or stabilizer for camera would make video tons better cheers

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Ordered one😁, comes next week🎉🎉

[@akchoirboy678]

you really need a camera with stabilization...

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I've got a fantastic camera actually. I'm ordering my gimble on Tuesday, then things will steady out. Really hard filming without a stabilizer..

[@kristieblu164]

Hi another amazing video with all the natural sounds, question did a herd of Elephants come through and strip the trees? I seen the same thing from another video where Elephants came through and the trees looked similar. Glad I was able to have my coffee with ya this morning, have a blessed day and see ya on the next one my friend. Stay safe.✌❤🦁😁

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

I'm glad you got to have your coffee watching this too. Was really special. And you are correct, elephants roam this specific part of the South often. So they strip it along with all the other herbivores. Hope you have a great day my friend ❤️🦁

[@helengailtownsend2604]

Wow great video as always. Do you know if they are brothers and if they have a family (dang it my mind can't think straight)

[@northerndeath1394]

What going on! They were coalition right?? They got in to it?? Wierd!! Ur right!!

[@joanjarrette8691]

Bible says the day us coming when the lion will lay down with the lamb and eat grass...can hardly wait for that day to come.

[@fillfinish7302]

Lions are not designed to eat grass.the need animal protien Madam

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

What must they eat then? Trees? Lion eat meat, so they hunt. Circle of life.

[@sabbrah8365]

It's not a big meal for these Gomondwane males💞but it gave them a little snack...hope they are all doing well as well as their prides and their little/sub adults💞 Thank you for the video KSAB🙂

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

You are most welcome, i appreciate you watching ❤️😁🦁

[@محمدالسريع-و8ب]

They are awesome lions and huge I wonder about their name It seemed they weren't hungry because the wildebeest was nearby and the trees provided an opportunity to hunt them, but they didn't even try thanks for this interesting video

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

You are most welcome. It was a bizarre event. I really thought that the one will make a move on the wildebeest.

[@dannyvalentino328]

The wildebeest saw the lion and the lion knew it so no use expending precious energy going after an animal that has already seen you. Just go after the sure, easy meal.

[@nicholasfoley7105]

Where is this? Have they moved into S26 or are they staying put? Thanks

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

This was on the S25. They are indeed saying put for now😁

[@buffiesilver]

Wow what a beautiful sight!! These boys are big!! The way they was fighting at first, that one was telling the others go get your own pig!! 😂 They are huge. Look like some Timbavati or Botswana boys!! Thank you for sharing this amazing sight. Much appreciated with respect.

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

They are Huge Buffie, specially the dominant one. I too had a good laugh when they approached. He almost took off like a normal house cat, speed and strength. It was a great sighting 🦁😁. You are most welcome my dear friend, i appreciate you watching, as always. And I'm glad you enjoyed it with me ❤️🙏🦁

Indeed Kris. Beautiful lions. Tank os just built different. He's really big.

[@r_l966]

Any idea where the other 2 Gomo boys are?

[@krugersafariandbeyond]

Very good question. It's been said that they are mostly in the Shishangeni concession. Been a very long time since I've seen them.

[@jayyk31]

The 3 other bros spend their time in the Shishangeni Concession. These 3 have the huge Crocodile Bridge area up to Hippo Pools. The big scar nosed Gomo boy does visit his other 3 bros in the Shishangeni Concession and back here. The 7th still might be alive somewhere in the Concession as its big and not a area that is traversed much. This info comes from a well known guide/ranger over in the area.

[@r_l966]

@@jayyk31 I see , so they are 7 in total . I was under the impression they were a coalition of 5 that split into 2 and 3 . Thank you for the info
