Lions were pursuing a herd of buffalo, but instead of isolating a buffalo to attack, a young male lion found himself surrounded by a herd of very angry buffalo that lashed out at him. For several minutes, we witnessed the incredible power of the buffalo, as they hooked the helpless lion with their horns and tossed him repeatedly into the air. It was very apparent why buffalo are considered one of the most dangerous animals in Africa. We thought the lion was going to be killed on the spot, but after about ten minutes, the buffalo abandoned him and he staggered to the bushes. It was hard to imagine he would live for long. At times these scenes were not pleasant to watch, I will admit. Nature can be harsh. But it was real, and it was amazing to witness the cycle of life in a place that is still wild. We need places like that on Earth, and it is good for us to visit them. As Tennyson wrote, on this day, we truly witnessed “Nature, red in tooth and claw.” #lions #buffalo #Tanzania #Ngorongoro #natureredintoothandclaw」7月12日 3時37分
