Giraffe Kicks Lions To Defend Itself

- In the human world, we can get away with saying “Pick on someone your own size”, but in the animal world, it’s fair game. If a predator can bring it down, no matter the size, they’ll go in for the chase. This is exactly the case when a pride of lions try and take down a huge giraffe.
BOOK YOUR TRIP TO KRUGER: bit.ly/BookatKr...
Thokozani Phakathi visited the Kruger and sent us his footage of a pride of lions trying to take down a giraffe. He told LatestSightings.com that he never would have thought that he’d see anything like this with his own eyes, until he did!

“We were driving south on the H4-2, on our way back from Crocodile Bridge Camp when we spotted a giraffe being held hostage by a pride of approximately 8 lions. We stopped to see how the hunt would play out. They made several attempts to bring down the giraffe, but it was firing kicks from hell!”
“The lions were very cautious and didn’t want to risk injury or death, particularly because they were all females and the fact that lionesses are usually the ones to secure a meal. This makes them a valuable asset to the pride. It seems that part of their strategy was to exhaust the giraffe and finish the business after dark, taking advantage of their good night vision, and probably when the males are back from patrolling duties so they could add their strong muscle and hefty bodies.”
“The lions were taking turns in harassing, scaring and exhausting the giraffe for a few minutes. As each lioness ha her turn, they’d lay down and pant for a while and then start the process all over. This process insured that there was no escape route for the giraffe as they lay in solid walls around it. We could only count up to 8 lions as they were scattered all around and in between the thickets of the bush.”
“Unfortunately, due to gate time, we had to abandon the breath-taking sighting and never saw the final outcome. It was an absolute thrill to witness how lions coordinate and deploy their strategy to intimidate, frustrate and exhaust their potential prey. I’d normally see such events on National Geographic, but I never even had the thought that I would see something like this with my naked eye.”
“It’s memorable sightings like these that make Kruger National Park such a special place and the ultimate safari adventure destination in South Africa!”

Omg me
Me
Damn I was

They must be desperate.... Lions see homeboy’s thunder thighs and think dang that look like juicy steak right there then homeboy foot leaves the ground
Lions: Pikachu face
The Lion is like: This is gonna be a Good meal
Giraffe: *Sorry buddy, not gonna happen*
Meal*
Droge Yoghurt You can edit your comment, man . haha
shiki ryougi I know- oof I see it now😂
Thats me trying to start my bike in winters ! Just kicks and kicks and kicks
.
💀💀
The giraffe is smart not to panic and run...only kicking when necessary so that it doesn't get tired.
The giraffe is bleeding but the wounds look superficial.
This male giraffe must be old, sick or injured... Lions would never attack a healthy adult male giraffe.
Wow
Yes sir.
That effortless kick can easily broke lion’s jaw
Yes, or crush a lion's skull.
Theres no way that jj can really beat a giraffe lmao
Hhahahshshsa yo like for reall tho what r u gonna punch the knees like he's gonna kick u u know
Lion: - we are from rugby team
Giraffe:- oh! Ya ?? I am from football team.
01:30 "Do you see this leg, the left hand one?" The left HAND leg? Okay Sir. ❤😂😂
Left ONE
What?
One perfect kick enough to break lions head
gowtham anand no shït
giraffe kick force is exaggerated.actually giraffe kick hit ratio is near 0%.
@Moobloom Why do you think only large herbivores are heroes?It's a very stupid and fragmentary idea.
@@토산포 except for the fact that there’s videos of Giraffe killing Lions with their kick on UA-cam but ok, a giraffe kick is overrated. Sure 🥴
@@ashdog236 The hit rate of giraffe kicks is also close to zero.And yet, it is so overrated.It's easy to get people's attention that herbivores killed predators~~~.So Raising UA-cam views by exploiting that point is also included in fraud.
Africa is the only “alive” continent, where can you see this such beautiful thing living in wild?
🌍❤👍
All other continent are busy building kebab store and kfc takeout
Are those lions just playing around over there afterwards? Like "aha, bitch kicked me in the face you see that? yeah--let's take a nap."
I think it was injured. Probably got hit in the head or had the wind knocked out of it.
Giraffes have a strong kick, and it can be really dangerous to a predator like a lion, they can obtain serious injuries.
🦁🦁
Thanks for the info Einstein

@@토산포 giraffe kick hit ratio 100%
after that the giraffe ask for a pizza and all of them had a lovely dinner together
長頸鹿的高度猶如在三層樓，踢功真是讚🦒～👍
Lions hunting giraffes is like 3-4 house cats hunting humans
Thank you vik
That giraffe got some good karate kicks
Sad that we couldn't see the ending. I'm curious as to which side won.
Good point.
You need more than just a pride of lions to take bug grown giraffe down. A healthy, desparate pride with smart tactics. I dont think 3 or 4 of these lionesses will do any damage to it.
Well one of the lions rans away near the end of the video so im sure the other 2 followed soon after to look for weaker prey
Sidemen Mukbang verification squad.
Ksi all gangsta till giraffe does a 720 spinning wheel kick
why are Alex and Melman fighting?
Such power
Yes
In the dinosaur version is like
1 brachiosauros and raptors
Lion🦁Sara jungle humein Ajeet k naam se jaanta hai🤨
Giraffe🦒 Aur Sara jungle humein Amitabh Bachchan ke naam se jaanta hai😅
Wha was the END?!! 🤔
The person who filmed doesn't know. They had to leave the park. From the video description:
“Unfortunately, due to gate time, we had to abandon the breath-taking sighting and never saw the final outcome. It was an absolute thrill to witness how lions coordinate and deploy their strategy to intimidate, frustrate and exhaust their potential prey. I’d normally see such events on National Geographic, but I never even had the thought that I would see something like this with my naked eye.”
@@lycaonpictus9662 "had to leave the park". So you weren't staying in the park? (Of course gates close at camps, too, but I'm just curious).
So the filmer was not staying in the park? Or was staying in a gated camp?
@@alanfoster6589 You have to be within the gate before 18.00 hrs in Krugerpark, All camps within the park have this restriction.
@@TheTjeerdo Yebol. I spent a week driving around Kruger (Skzuza and Oliphants camps) back in the late 90's. Saw a black leopard, but I was driving and couldn't get my camera in position in time. 'Tis greatly to be regretted.
Right. Anyone else want to be a hero?
Like Mirko Cro Cop would say, Right leg hospital, left leg Cemetery!!!
Devastating to get a kick from a muscle that large...
What is sidemen
1:01
Yess
I read this fact on my last page of classmate notebooks
Welp, Vikk wasn’t lying
I was wondering why that lion was in the dentist office.
this is why alex halucinated about marty not melman, melman woulda sent his ass back to the zoo
Here from the sidemen mukbang video
Can they even kill that thing?
Definitely. Tough job! But possible.
i seen em taking down a very young giraffe but a fully grown adult damn that is serious stuff. this giraffe may be old and/or carrying an injury. lions are so good at sensing even the slightest weakness.
Surely yes, if they can slice some tendons/ligaments in the giraffes legs or around the knee
@@Tantium hard to get to the tendons, giraffe skin is one of the strongest in the animal kingdom, its very deep.
Yeah jj dosent stand a chance
Ye
"Sweet Chin Music!!"
Melman kicked Alex
Come it was vikk
Is this a real hunt or a ritual between giraffe and lion?
Go Giraffe! 🐪
They don't use there horns?
Good kickin' Mr. G.
Maybe recalculate your ambitions ladies. Best of luck to everyone in this video.
And JJ wants to fight that creature... ok mate
Do giraffes of ten end up as pray ? , Hope not ( silly me )
Bruh why don't they stomp
Playing as a puerta with allos after you.

Everyone thinks they’re gangsta until they’re kicked by a giraffe.
Jar of Smegma it’s been four days, bro. Just let it rock.
giraffe kick hit ratio 0%.

@Jar of Smegma - I agree, a lot of people think cool to use the made up word "gangsta"
yawn
lmao jj
One of those kicks will make a human insides look like noodles. Crushing everything in it's path sheesh
Lions normally wouldnt bother Giraffes it they were that desperate for food
giraffe kick force is exaggerated.actually giraffe kick hit ratio is near 0%.
@@토산포 tf you saying
@@토산포 The force from a giraffe kick is not exaggerated...it would be similar to getting hit by a sledgehammer.
However, lions have learned how to time their attacks carefully and avoid the lethal kicks.
It is still very dangerous and risky for lions to attack giraffes.
@@토산포 0% isn't a ratio lol, it's a percentage. Don't know what you're talking about
Who else can imagine vikk watching this in his spare time 😂
Vik the sidemen ?
Send link
A giraffe kick is extremely powerful. One impact kick to the head can kill even a lion.
Exactly!
That's why they are so careful.
Yeah
Looks like at 1:01 he got one that has attacked his rear?
But cats are extreme fast in reflex. After some missed kicks, the prey is out of battery and becomes dinner for the cats. A giraffe trying to kick a lion is same as you trying to hit a fly with your hands, it doesn't work.
giraffe kick is exaggerated.hit ratio 0%.
Who’s here after sidemen video? 😂
Bruh 😂😂 right after
ye 😂
Obviously 😂
wow how?
Who's here from sidemens video
I would like your comment but you have a fortnite pfp
Who’s here from the sidemen mukbang
Me
Who’s here from the sidemen?
Reisu Boys Vevo me
Don’t underestimate the limitless destructive power of the giraffe!
This dude really know how to defend himself, good job Mr Giraffe!
The power kick from the giraffe can easily break your neck
There’s probably some giraffe lover thinking who tf are the sidemen ahahah
Yeah me 🤦
Spy Anonymous lol. It’s an English group on UA-cam. This video was mentioned in one of their videos so everyone came to watch it
Giraffes are so underrated
Natural selection gifted Giraffes with powerful kicks to protect themselves from predators.
If only natural selection also gave them spikes lining their neck to prevent lions from biting them once they're down, THEN giraffes would be invincible.
thats me triying to swim
just kicks and kicks and kicks
It's not natural selection , it's a well organised structure of the nature!
Hey guys it’s me Vikkstar123
POV: you came here to say “who came here from the sidemen” but then you realise 100 people have already
I actually came here from calebcity
I actually came cause I was curious 😃
Unpopular theory: It's compulsory to young Giraffes to undergo karate training for situations like these ;)
Notice the giraffe didn't "run"...... But rather stood his ground. Kicking the bloody daylights out of anyone interested.... 😂😅😂
1:00 that lion def has brain damage from that kick
Love the double kick at 1:40
"Everybody's got a plan until (s)he get's kicked in the mouth."
Why didn’t u just say they
I’m not here from the sidemen mukbang but that’s where I’m going after this video
SIdemen Mukbang?
So sad 😞
Anyone else here from the sidemen video😂😂
Yes🖐
yup 😂
Yesir
the first comment from the sidemen channel but so little likes. Wow
Can this guy get laid? Huh?
A Lion would get smashed by Giraffe in a Seconds
These lions are lucky. Taking on a full grown giraffe is a dangerous task. Looks like they all survived the encounter.
Imagine being decked by that thing
Actually you can't, because you will already see the white of the heaven gates
Title should be..Lions couldn't defeat final Boss, game over !
when you, a herbivore, get ambushed by a pack of so called carnivores, and fucking win. Giraffes are based
Giraffe kicks wouldn’t break a human’s skull. It would shatter
I forget how crazy an animal a Giraffe is. Like just look at it.
This years 1st video😍😍
#notification_squad
First of many
Who's sidemen?
giraffe should try mosquito repellent cream
😂😂😂😂😂
Anyone here after Vik mentioned it?
The hunted are are way more powerful than the hunters. Africa is a strange place
Why the F everyone is mentioning sideman? WTF is it?
Who's here not from Sideman's video?!
Sorry but Ksi wouldn’t win this fight
What have the sidemen done tho this comment section
Made it quite tedious.
