LIONS Devour BUFFALO in FEEDING FRENZY

MalaMala Safari Moments: Episode 82.
We found the Nkuhuma pride and Northern Avoca males moments after they brought down a buffalo near Mlowathi Dam, at midday! The feeding frenzy that ensued went on for 6 hours... nonstop!
...
From MalaMala Game Reserve to wherever you are in the world, we'll bring you moments from our daily safaris in one of Africa's most iconic private game reserves. This is essentially a continuation of our 'Rangers in Isolation' series which was filmed during the national Lockdown.

I love the territorial roar over the carcass at the end - as if anything within miles would even dream of trying to cut in on their feed. Love these dinner with the pride events.

[@bts4me]

It must be incredible to hear their growls while you're right there nearby. On the video, they sound three dimensional it's so intense. 😊

[@MundiaKamau]

It's actually terrifying hearing lions roar near you, spine chilling. Experienced it once here in Kenya, the year 1997 as I recall. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 16th March 2024.

[@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL]

Love how when they're eating even the cubs will start showing teeth and throwing claws into the adults of the pride. Even the adult males.

[@MaevaStardust]

That's what makes them special. At young age, they know what they are and are already unafraid. I've seen 4 month old lion cubs hissing and throwing punches at the dominant lioness who was part of the rival pride before getting killed.

[@ccyynn808]

Fantastic to see the Nkuhuma Pride along with the Northern Avoca males (minus Dark Mane). Seems like old times in Djuma. Amazing raw video. Thank you MalaMala for another grand video👏🔥♥️

[@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL]

@@nadineireland3361 definitely! I don’t remember if this is the Nkuhuma pride but they sure eat like them! The Nkuhumas always blow me away with how ferocious they are around the dinner table, just like these guys. I mean they are literally fighting INSIDE A DEAD BUFFALO! How much crazier does it get?! Edit: Okay I stopped being lazy and rewound to the beginning and it is the Nkuhumas LOL. No surprise there. I can’t speak for combat but when it comes to food the Nkuhumas are noticeably the most hardcore lion pride I have seen. It doesn’t matter if you’re a male, a lioness, a subadult, or a cub in the Nkuhuma pride, you have to be willing to fight HARD for your spot at the dinner table. If anyone can name a more intense pride than the Nkuhumas I would LOVE to see video of them.

[@nadineireland3361]

@@MLB_CoercedFreeman5OutOfATL - Ha ha! Yes, I reckon that in a big, strong pride like the Nkuhumas, you’d either have to be prepared to fight-everyone!-for every scrap of food or you’d go hungry. 😢💔🐾
