00:00 You're looking at a glorious bird that may just be the most unappreciated creature on

00:09 the African Serengeti.

00:14 These vultures are the cleanup crew.

00:16 They're the most cooperative and most social of all.

00:20 A full-grown Rappel's vulture can weigh over 20 pounds.

00:24 It's a huge bird.

00:28 These expert scavengers will sometimes fly over 90 miles looking for a kill.

00:34 This looks promising.

00:36 A hungry lion takes a bead on a pair of topis, a species of antelopes.

00:43 The topis are distractible and the lion won't miss this opportunity.

00:48 The griffon vultures circle overhead, observing all of this.

00:53 Believe it or not, taking down the antelope was the easy part for the lion.

00:57 Now it must find out how to hide the kill from all the monsters attempting to steal

01:01 it.

01:03 Just as the vultures are watching the lion, some hyenas are watching the vultures.

01:08 The lion tries to chase off the hyenas, but a certain number of hyenas equals critical

01:13 mass.

01:14 And the lion ends up having to ditch its booty, which means the vultures have an entire fresh

01:22 topi carcass all to themselves.

01:26 Even the hyenas can't get close when these vultures are dining.

01:36 A cheetah and her cub are feasting on our freshly killed impala.

01:41 But a gang of vultures interrupts their peaceful meal.

01:45 A feline mob tries to scare them off.

01:52 She's no match for a flock of hungry birds.

01:58 Cheetahs will avoid danger and will leave if threatened.

02:04 Because vultures are opportunistic scavengers, they often steal other animals' kills.

02:13 However, everything was observed by this lioness, and when the chance presented itself, she

02:19 attacked the vultures and stole their stolen food.
