Nature's Greatest Moments | Lion Pride Kill Giraffe

4. Lions Kill a Giraffe
A pride of lions on the African bushveld constitute a perfect killing machine. Co-operation, stealth, perfect timing and an acute sense of opportunity work together in synchrony as lionesses surround
and harass an old bull giraffe, which is unable to retaliate with the same agility as in his youth. The powerful legs kick out in all directions but are no deterrent for the master of the pride whose masculine power reduces the proud giraffe to a hearty bushveld meal for the hungry pride, attended on the periphery by hyenas and vultures lured to the scene by the bush telegraph of opportunity.

You're right! They missed the best moment by far.

[@anselmosanchez8379]

Maybe the one who’s shooting the scene help the lions bring down the giraffe just to film something.

[@bukenyadouglas2183]

You go and film your own full clip and bring it here. Can't you see the camera is obstructed by the thick thickets around??

[@LordSky69]

@@bukenyadouglas2183 lol so defensive relax. the guy makes a point based on the title the greatest moment should and usually is the execution of the kill. no one watches a boxing match to miss the knockout shot and just see the start and the ending... smartass remarks like yours are hilariously moronic 🤡

The Giraffe really focused on the male Lion after he joined the hunt. Just look at how brave he was confronting the Giraffe 10x his size.

[@friezasoicy8406]

@@mikekoz6351 "Jungle" comes from a Sanskrit word (jangala) that means "wilderness" or "place that's uninhabited by humans". Because English likes to change things, "jungle" eventually came to mean what it does today, a very specific type of wilderness. The lion has been "king of the jungle" since before English changed the meaning.

Why is the important part missing Looks like the giraffe was killed or harmed to make it easier for the lions

[@nighthawk0889]

This is a documentary not even safari trips intervene with nature why would a group of professionals do? Also if the Giraffe looks dead thats because these battles last hours of constant biting cutting and chasing the Giraffe until it can't no more.

@@nighthawk0889 Tourists know their foreign currency can do anything so they pay for this kind of service It's common

[@nighthawk0889]

Your claim is beyond speculation. No tourist would ever accept harming their animals, this isn't America that put money first over anything. I know when people are just talking without knowing for sure if they are right. Like your original comment you accused a documentary (not even a mean rich guy) of harming the Giraffe for the views. That's crazy talk. Why would they hurt their reputation for something that lions can easily do on their own.

The lion can't beat one to one to the giraffe, she is more stronger.

[@thamara2130]

Giraffe aren’t strong. Only thing that keep giraffes safe from lions is their height. Because of their height lions can’t use their fatal attack to their necks. If giraffes were shorter they would be a easy meal even for hyenas. Cape buffalos are way stronger but get killed by lions easily because they can do their fatal knock down.
