  1. you can only hope animals don't feel pain the same way we do

  2. Probably wants to eat in a little shade in a spot where he can better protect his kill. Heck that must be 500lbs and through sand. African animals are so tough. Would be interesting if the lion is thinking "Yeah it's about to rain and this will be flooded by tomorrow. This will make sense. You'll see!"

  3.  @dennislen198  nope, do YOUR research and stop being a jackass

  4.  @mziwendukuntsele671  Yeah big cats are cats that can roar, because of a flexible cartilage in their throats. So that's , leopards, jaguars, lions, tigers. Cheetahs and pumas actually purr like the smaller cats, something in their voice box is fixed rather than flexible. A puma basically a giant house cat. The snow leopard can roar and purr I think. The cheetah is a totally differently built cat than most. Basically has no defense, traded powerful shoulders for speed and has fixed claws like a dog and so the claws are also pretty dull. They're also basically all clones of one another because they nearly went extinct long ago and they're built with both cat and dog parts, even get diseases only dogs get.

  5. look at that leopard jump up and over that warthog to evade those sharp tusks, wow, everything happens so fast
    4
  6. that's a leopard for ya....the ultimate cat
    4
  7. yeah they usually just steal their impala from cheetahs, impalas evolved to escape the fastest animal on earth, their ability to change direction is really insane and their speed is just above any lioness

  8. leopards move almost like squirrels, at their size it is just absolutely incredible a funny thing squirrels..well some do when they hide is lay flat but they shake their tails, cats will shake their tails sometimes when hunting, it's such a silly mistake, I guess a nervs and anxiety thing
    4
  9. yeah you'd think the larger one would win, but you never know what each hyena's strength level really is, experience and size vs health and stamina, when they put crocs (not the larger species) and alligators together in sanctuaries or farms or whatever I've heard that the alligators hold their own better because of the much larger head, a larger head just helps a ton, more power, more control, larger jaws etc, but who knows the condition of the animal before it enters the water or even how it feels in the water

  10. haha, that lion had zero interest, the leopard looked injured but sometimes cats will do awkward movements like that cause they're a little scared and stressed and trying to show they're not an easy meal while also protecting their spine etc, very interesting watching it flip around like it knew jiu jitsu, I think cats kinda do know jiu jitsu really, when they fight you can see some interesting moves
    4
  11. nothing shows you what separates a leopard from other cats more than when you see leopards encountering porcupines..they're so stubborn and fierce
    4
  12. elephants are scared of the small creatures, maybe it's because the smaller ones are so fast and fearless

  13. Bk Jeong felines don't need stamina, they kill something before brunch, eat it, and sleep for the next 3/4 of the day away or go out lookin for chicks
    3
  14. Bk Jeong well reptiles are obviously more evolved but that's not the point, sloths are extremely evolved but they're practically just furballs attached to trees, the point is cats are the athletes of the animal world, so quick, agile, beautiful, and powerful with the ability to do practically everything short of flying and walk on water, that cultures have revered, feared, and worshiped them for thousands of years, frogs are highly evolved creatures, but they're boring, even though they can survive while encased in concrete or catch flys by simply flicking their tongues they're not leaping onto a zebras back at 50mph and latching onto it's throat while in mid air, bears hibernate during winter because there isn't enough food for them to survive if they don't, they don't have the tools to gather enough food during winter time but then again they don't need to because they can just sleep until there's food again, but of course while they sleep the cats might eat them

  15. TheChamp 101 has anyone ever documented a lion and tiger confrontation in the wild? if a tiger (essentially a rogue lion) approached a pride of lions the male would confront the tiger and the lionesses might join in and it would be lucky to make it out without severe wounds, but there would be no reason for the tiger to approach the pride because it wouldn't be interested in taking over unless there were no tigresses around, who knows what would happen, they could co-exist the same way I think jaguars could exist in africa but that's only because of their ability and size, in short tigers will thrive in africa as long as they stay away from territorial prides and rogue lions, the lions always have the numbers, that whole tiger vs lion debate is silly, yes amur tigers are larger than most lions and yes bengals are very aggressive and tigers have longer teeth and stronger bites etc. but lions kill tigers and tigers kill lions, there is a debate because there is no clear winner, it usually comes down to the individual and even then these aren't natural wild confrontations

  16. this is a leopard playing angry birds
    3
  17. the power and skill to swing that buffalo to the ground like that, crazy, that's a very good trick he pulled on it also, maybe a..2.5 year old lion?

  18. Wow, what a lucky guy to be there to film it. You know that trip was money well spent. DON'T FORGET TO LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!

  19.  @tara_p_rose01  interesting, it also helps that cat's bones aren't all really connected, they kinda float in a thick layer of elastic cushion, the leg bones and collar bones etc
    3
  20.  @tara_p_rose01  I've seen a video or photos of that before. They look like the happiest lions in the world.
    3
  21.  @sshep86  they can beat all but maybe 4 cars at 0-60 and everything at 0-30, the speed is incomprehensible to the human brain, everything in Africa is too fast to comprehend haha, we're turtles
    3
  22.  @cameronhowe1110  no, those trees are needed alive for other animals, there's way too many elephants now, if a world without humans there is a balance, but in a world of humans we have to intervene, it's like how wolves are needed to move elk herds to prevent overgrazing but today the wolves will just end up growing so high in number that they'll decimate everything, animal species are being sacrificed due to fear of outrage for removing the precious little Disney elephants
    3
  23. wow, so giraffes must take in a ton of water because a lot is still flowing out, that's amazing, puts it at much more of a risk to crocs etc and especially the flies etc so it must be tough..but it's toughing it out, nature...uh....find a way
    3
  24. WOW, that is wild, pure, raw, visceral, what's the word I'm looking for, Mike Tyson? Seeing that in real life....the ground is lava.

  26. cute

  27.  @flow7791  funny how they'll sometimes run away if one chooses to run away, I've seen one lonesome buffalo take on a rhino, to the death, that's some crazy footage

  28.  @Abdi-libaax  haha, a small one, sure

  29. mayapapaya1198 caracals are known for their jumping, servals and snow leopards may be just as talented though but pound for pound the caracal seems the best

  30. abdi1983 it's fanboy bullshit, all cats have their specializations and trade-offs, what tigers do have are longer teeth, certain subspecies are larger as in heavier but lions are taller, of course tigers are solitary creatures so they can all hunt very well vs not all lions can hunt well on their own, tigers are amazing creatures, very agile and unmatched at snatching prey at short distances, but then again lions chase down and kill very large and dangerous game in incredible fashion, they fight a little differently, they put on mass a little differently, but they're both large cats, when it comes to tiger vs lion it's usually down to the fight in the individual, the same as when you see two house cats or feral cats with much greater size differences, you can't predict which one is the better hunter or fighter just by color pattern and size, stronger bite force doesn't even matter, what matters is the weakest lion bite with the shortest teeth can kill practically any animal on the planet purely by suffocation, they could probably adapt to each other's environments because they're so well equipped and apex predators, but once there they'd each have other lions and tigers to deal with
    2
  31. that's more than amazing, astonishing
    2
  32.  @predater5017  yeah there's video of sanctuary lions climbing up basically what looks like telephone poles, if there's meat on the top they'll do it, for cats though, some cats are just terrible at climbing down, some just can't back down, they take a couple steps facing down and just jump, I think for lions that might play a factor, but the bigger the animal the harder it is to do things, like a giant strongman can't do pullups, there's tradeoffs with size
    2
  33.  @justsomegamerwithoutmustache  lions are tall, tigers are long, I know that the best way to rock climb is to keep your body close to the rock so that you'll have to carry less weight outward..so I mean that's advantage tiger right there, so I mean THAT plus the fact tigers have slightly longer claws and slightly larger paws due to being swimmers is going to also help, hand size helps in climbing, tigers are more agile, can leap slightly further and so that's more back leg power too while their shoulders are probably equal the weight is a factor out on those smaller limbs, really what's more impressive is how large and strong those trees are that can hold up such a large animal, haha
    2
  34. well it was a quick death, and there's probably nothing tastier
    2
  35. impala tried to make the best of his torture, there's worse things than being strangled by a leopard, this is one..well I guess hyenas would have been worse, well you can't really call it torture as it's all part of hunting for them, anyway you just hope animals don't feel pain like we do, they must not, not on the level we do, they're stronger in so many ways and I doubt their brains would allow it
    2
  36. Pigs are so tough and dangerous and fast. The fact that big cats can catch them and dispatch them and rip through them really shows you what kind of ability and raw power the cats have. And of course the warthog will always sound as if it's having the most brutal death ever. haha, the squeal is it's way of shouting for help..not really AHHH, I'M BEING EATEN ALIVE AND IT HURTS REALLY BAD!
    2
  37. looks like the alpha came out of nowhere changed the situation (well it looks like a couple other mature baboons were also advancing at the same time as well), amazing footage...man leopards aren't afraid of anything and baboons aren't just the fleeing type either, props to the leopard for making it out haha, they were all over him, I wonder why he just continued when clearly he had no shot at a small one
    2
  38.  @huibu8987  vista? lol, bsod was all that thing was
    2
  39.  @thijsjong  leopards and lions live in asia as well
    2
  40. hahaha i watch squirrels all the time and they're very impressive, leopards are next level
    2
  41.  @rishirajsaikia1323  he owned me
    2
  42. the fight to live as long as possible is in all of us, and you never wanna die by hyena, I'd want it to be a leopard that gets me
    2
  43. damn.... giraffes getting so many L's
    2
  44. wow, didn't know they went after rhino, but I knew they'd attack that area, figured the rhino would defend like the buffalo though, they don't seem too smart, but that rhino looked wore out already from injuries, predators always sense that, but it makes sense, of all the land animals they're basically the only ones that can chew into rhino
    2
  45. there's nothing like a tiger's roar, that's why mgm dubbed a tiger's roar over their lion :)
    2
  46. the power in that lioness slap..meets the speed and ferocity of the leopard, unless the leopard was bitten badly I think it did the most damage and clawed the absolute crap out of the lioness, I don't think lions ever expect to face such difficulty, I mean it's just a small cat after all, haha, amazing creatures, I feel that woman's pain in having to watch it, must have been heart-pounding to see it that close especially because we know that one of them very well could end up in the vehicle, and there's a a instinctual fight or flight feeling you get around predators and especially around growls like that, but yeah go to Africa and experience it!

  47.  @gillenlao4744  Once on its knees the lioness would try to roll it over and keep it on its side. Elephants can't lay on their sides long because of the weight on their internal organs, labored breathing etc. But it could be an injured or sick elephant and that's why the lioness went for it. Maybe the lioness has an injury and can't chase down faster pray. You never know. Some lions will specialize in larger game.

  48. I'm guessing no croc could ever take down an adult elephant..
    2
  49. he used his weight well, and once an elephant's down it's not getting back up, sadly I'm guessing elephants don't die a quick death, I can't imagine a bite to the throat works on them, I could be wrong though, I think after a few hours of lying on it's side an elephant will die due to pressure on the lungs, but I'm not sure, it's hard to imagine them even being able to eat it, I guess the young ones are a lot easier to chew through, still a better death than being eaten alive by dogs or hyenas..possibly, yeah I don't know much about how lions eating elephant haha, but they go after them for a reason
    2
  50. Looks like it's just playfully rolling. I think that kick turned out to be more of a throw as the lioness rode it a bit, but man are those dangerous if only the hoof catches you. Very risky game.
