00:00 Lions are famous for being the king of the jungle. Their formidable stature and

00:12 reputation places them near the top of the food chain. Under the cover of night,

00:20 the lion clan has a chance to fill their empty stomachs. Now they can see the prey

00:30 better than the prey can see them. Lions use a cooperative strategy to hunt large

00:35 animals. But when the buffalo herd is close to the prey, their strategy is more

00:42 likely to fail. The member of the buffalo herd was successfully rescued. As the sun

00:50 rose, nothing changed. The lions are still hungry and clinging to their place

00:55 until they have a chance to catch a buffalo. It is not in lions favor to

01:02 have buffaloes congregating, as it is nearly impossible to catch prey. So the

01:09 next strategy is to keep one buffalo out of its flock.

01:14 An attack by the buffalo with its sharp horns can seriously damage a lion.

01:56 The buffalo, after a long struggle, managed to escape by taking shelter

02:01 between the herd of hippos. To stay cool, hippos need to spend most of the day

02:12 submerged in water. But it's too crowded here. This male hippo has been driven out

02:19 and must find a new bathing pool. The road is full of dangers and he may have

02:23 to walk up to 30 miles to find a place where he can protect himself. Lions are

02:28 still hungry and the degree of severity no longer means anything to them. They

02:33 really need to eat. Halfway through his journey, as the hippo was resting, a lioness

02:43 came towards him from behind and she probably thought he was dead. The

02:50 hippopotamus attack almost ended her life. Lions don't give up and chase the

02:57 hippo even though they know how bad and dangerous it is.

03:01 Finally, the lake once again is the only obstacle standing in the way of the

03:18 lions.
