Old Lioness Tries Escaping Gang of Hyenas

A lone lioness chased by hyenas ends up cornered and has to make a run for her life; does she make it out alive, or do the hyenas win?

34-year-old commercial and industrial property broker at Corporate Real Estate Africa, Armand Barnard, was witness to this sad sighting and shared it with LatestSightings.com.
“It was a warm afternoon in Kruger National Park when my wife and I embarked on a game drive, eagerly anticipating our first sighting. We drove down the H4-1 towards the H12 bridge, then towards Nkuhlu picnic site. On our way back, we were looking for leopards or lions when we suddenly heard a commotion.“
“A lioness ran out of the bush, pursued by four hyenas. Running for her life, with the hyenas biting her hind legs. We could see she was in distress. The hyenas then surrounded her, and you could almost see the acceptance of defeat in her eyes.”
The rivalry between lions and hyenas is well-documented in nature. Both are apex predators. While lions are generally larger and more powerful, hyenas are known for their cunning and scavenging abilities. Hyenas often target young or weakened lions.
“The lioness looked old and weak, perhaps separated from her pride and therefore defenceless. The lioness growled and groaned in agony. Eventually getting a break, she made a run for it, with the hyenas on her tail.”
“The bush was so thick that they all disappeared and we could not see them anymore, so we are unsure what happened. Our emotions were all over the place, from fear to disbelief. After the sighting, we sat silently for about five minutes before we could speak.”
“We have never seen anything like this in the last 8 years we have been visiting the Kruger; even our friends that go to the Kruger very often have never seen anything like this. Although we believe there was a happy ending, we can never be certain. As the next morning we found 3 lionesses on the same road, and one of them had a limp in her left rear leg with a bite mark.”

@@singingsono8565 You make a valid point.

I am glad she managed to escape ....As compared to humans, life is harsher for wild animals

[@3winanimal]

I'm glad to hear that the lioness managed to escape from the hyenas. While life can be harsh for all creatures, wild animals face a unique set of challenges and struggles that are often far more brutal than what humans experience. In the wild, animals face a constant battle for survival against predators, disease, and other environmental factors. They must rely on their instincts and physical abilities to find food, water, and shelter, and even then, many animals do not survive for long. It's important for us to remember that the struggles of wild animals are not to be taken lightly, and we must work towards protecting and conserving their populations to ensure their survival for generations to come.

Hyenas have an uncanny sense that something is odd with another animal and exploit it to advantage.

[@3winanimal]

You're absolutely right! Hyenas are known for their intelligence and social organization, which allows them to coordinate attacks on larger and more powerful predators like lions. They also have a keen sense of smell and hearing, which helps them detect weaknesses or vulnerabilities in their prey or competitors. This makes them skilled opportunists and adaptable hunters, able to take advantage of various situations in order to survive and thrive in their environments.

Yes, hyenas are known for their keen senses and ability to take advantage of weaknesses in their prey. They have excellent eyesight, hearing, and sense of smell, which they use to locate and track potential meals. They are also highly social animals that hunt in packs, which allows them to coordinate their efforts and take down larger prey.

[@miked1187]

She did not appear to be old or injured but she was alone and the hyenas sensed she was vulnerable though none were willing to risk a frontal attack. I hope she made it up a tree or backed into a thorn bush to protect her backside. Life as a loner is tough even for a lioness. If she showed more aggression they may have walked off not wanting the risk. Wish there was more to see of this unique interaction.

[@3winanimal]

It's fascinating to see the dynamics at play in this encounter between the lioness and the hyenas. As you mentioned, being alone can make a predator vulnerable, even for a powerful animal like a lioness. It's possible that the hyenas were testing her limits to see if they could take advantage of her vulnerability. It's a reminder of the importance of social bonds in the animal kingdom and the challenges faced by solitary animals.

I'm glad to hear that the lioness in question survived the encounter with the hyenas. As predators, hyenas are certainly formidable and can be quite ruthless in their hunting and scavenging behaviors. However, they also play an important role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems, helping to control populations of other animals and scavenging carrion that might otherwise go to waste. While they may not be the most beloved creatures in the animal kingdom, it's important to respect their place in the natural world and to appreciate the unique qualities and behaviors that make them such fascinating and complex animals.

[@wintvusa86]

As lions age, they may become less agile and less able to defend themselves against predators such as hyenas. In the wild, it is not uncommon for older lions to become targets of hyena gangs looking to take advantage of their weakness. If an old lioness is targeted by a gang of hyenas, she may attempt to escape by fleeing or seeking refuge in a nearby area. However, if the hyenas are persistent or catch up to her, the outcome may be tragic. It is important to remember that all animals in the wild are subject to the natural balance of predator and prey, and that the process of aging and natural selection is a normal part of the ecosystem. As humans, we can work to protect and preserve the natural habitats of these animals and respect their role in the ecosystem. We should also appreciate the beauty and complexity of the natural world and work towards conservation efforts that promote the coexistence of humans and wildlife.

You're right that in the wild, it's a matter of survival for all animals, and the need to eat is a basic instinct that drives predators to hunt and kill their prey. While it may seem harsh and brutal from our human perspective, this is the way that nature has functioned for millions of years. It's important to remember that animals do not act out of malice or cruelty; they simply follow their natural instincts in order to survive.

[@3winanimal]

You are correct that lions are generally more powerful predators than hyenas, and they are known to be more successful in individual confrontations. However, hyenas are skilled hunters in their own right, and they are also known for their persistence and stamina. In some cases, hyenas have been able to kill lions, particularly in situations where the lion is outnumbered or weakened by injury or illness. As for the fate of the lioness in the situation you mentioned earlier, it's certainly possible that she was able to escape and avoid harm from the hyenas. The natural world is full of surprises, and it's always difficult to predict the outcome of any particular encounter between wild animals.

@@Dutti215 they rarely do, they don't, and then 2-3 videos show they do? You're all over the place lol. Lions do kill Hyena's if they have too, and most times its to make a point and for competition for territory. Lioness's can never kill an adult hyena? They sure can.
