00:00 It is known that African buffaloes prefer to live in herds, which increases their strength

00:13 to protect themselves and their young.

00:17 Although lions are very strong and feared by most animals in the world, they are afraid

00:22 of herds of buffalo and they are aware of the danger they can face when attacking them.

00:29 Usually buffaloes do not stray from their herd, except in rare cases, such as during

00:36 pregnancy, as the newborn calf is hidden by its mother in the grass, away from the herd

00:42 for the first few weeks of its life.

00:48 This helps avoid the possibility of being run over by the herd and keeping it away from

00:53 predators.

00:56 One week after birth, the calf has the ability to walk, but they still haven't rejoined their

01:04 herd, which can put them in inevitable danger.

01:09 Lions are looking for a meal that will satisfy their empty stomachs.

01:18 Instead of catching an adult buffalo among the hundreds of them in the herd, the lions

01:22 found themselves only in front of a calf and its mother.

01:29 The mother and baby buffalo did not yet realize the threat they would face.

01:35 Danger is approaching, and it is clear that the target will only be the calf.

01:44 The mother tries to keep the danger away from her baby.

01:51 But she didn't know that the danger was also coming from the other side.

01:58 As the lions gather on the calf, another buffalo comes to try to save it.

02:16 But as its attempt failed, the buffalo did not dare to try again.

02:21 Because any mistake can end its life.

02:26 The mother lost her son, and the herd lost a new offspring.
