Herd Rescues Buffalo from Lions and Crocodiles!
Вставка

- Over a decade ago, there was an epic battle between lions, buffaloes and a crocodile at a waterhole called Transport dam. That video was aptly named Battle at Kruger. Well, 10 years later, the next generations of lions at Transport Dam recently faced their own failed hunt due to a huge herd of buffalo and crocodiles interfering!
Thuli Khumalo, head of Atamela Tours, captured this heart-pumping sighting while on a tour to the Kruger National Park.
After lunch at Skukuza Rest Camp, Atamela’s game drive full of tourists arrived at the world-famous Transport Dam, in the hopes of seeing some action. Little did they know what they were actually in for.
They spotted a pride of lions lying in the shade, overlooking the water.
If you spot lions hiding in the shade at a waterhole, it is often a good idea to stick around. Lions are opportunistic, so they will often try and hunt any animal that comes close enough.
Surely enough, a large herd of impala went down to the water and the lions gave chase! The impalas were too fast for the lions, but at the edge of the water, they spotted an old buffalo bull.
The lions chased that buffalo and it ran into the water where out of nowhere, a crocodile starts taking a go at the already targeted buffalo.
The buffalo decides that the water is probably more dangerous than on land, where it can potentially outrun the pride of lions that are now waiting for him to re-emerge from the water.
As soon as the buffalo hit the surface, he makes a run for it, with the lions following close on its tail.
When buffaloes are under threat, they will call for help. Luckily, for this buffalo, his calls were answered!
A massive herd of buffalo that was on its way to the dam saw the commotion and chased the lions away, saving the life of fellow buffalo, unbeknown to us if it is from the same herd.

This is unreal. This buffalo went in water, then battled with crocodile, came out of water, kept lions in respect. I declare it the most couragous and powerful buffalo of the year.
😂
Ikr
The tenacity of that buffalo is legendary! Saved himself from the crocs and held off the lions including two big males long enough for backup to arrive. Good on him. The desire to live is strong in that one. Props given.
It was just double lucky: the croc was small and the lions arent hungry
@@triplocore Actually the lions were hungry they were just strategizing because they had to bring down an animal that could deal them fatal damage with one hit. They needed to tire him out by keeping him running. Then one would jump on his back when he was distracted and attack him from that position until he lost his footing. Then they would pile on and the others would go for the legs and throat to gold him down until they could suffocate him.
@@triplocoreyou dont know if they’re hungry or not, so idk why your saying that
The force is strong in this one
@@mauricebeverley5029
It's a typical lion fanboy excuse whenever lions fail on a hunt which 60% of the times.
What a happy ending! This buffalo is legend

That was one smart buffalo. I’ve seen buffalos defend themselves alone against a lion pride but this one defended itself really well.
he was a very healthy strong bull. Lions stand no chance against those
@@mnximo maybe not 1 lion but as a pride he would have eventually been taken down. He lucky his herd came back to save him
The lions just grabbing 4 them by year, statistically, crocs are the most common predators of buffalos, so isn't rare a buffalo escapes.
Lionesses aren't capable of taking something like that down, but 4 lions probably could.
@@alancosta4760 This was a bull in his prime, the croc could not have taken him down. As evident in the video it tried multiple times but could not.
Lions: "here comes our food!"
Croc: "here comes my lunch!"
Buffalo: "HERE COMES MY HOOD!"
This is a 1k comment
Both lion and crock: we're starving today.
Lmaoooo!!!!

This buffalo has to be the #1 pick at this year's Animal Kingdom draft
Belíssimos
To be fair Cape Buffalo are 1 ton and have some of the most impressive muscle ratios of any Animal.
They were stuck there with HER 😅😅
lmaaaaao
The team that selects him is definitely going all the way this year!!!!!!!!! Lol
Agreed. Lol
This buffalo surely has some stories to tell his grandchildrens
Lol
Lesson learnt ; never give up
@B Black Yeah you tell him!! Buffalo can't speak, either...which is another flaw in his obviously totally serious prediction of future events...😜
We think hes a she :)
Small for a Buffalo but clearly an adult.
Nah the lions got him a week later 😂🤦🏾♂️
This gives a whole new meaning to the Phrase "Stuck between a rock and a hard place"!
ua-cam.com/channels/jV7F1c03k64rvlb-amRH5g.html
More like out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Stuck between a croc and a lion's face.
😂😂😂😂😂
well no this is an example of what that phrase means
That buffalo has some serious survival skills !! Dodge the Croc and took on few lions. He was not going to be anyone's meal today. 😂
Terima dan
Thanks for telling us what we just saw
Gabriel Trujillo stop being a dick for no reason
@@Negro.spiritual its the internet. It's free game. Stop being so soft
@@trujillogab maybe you are right
This almost made me cry seeing the buffalo stranded between the Crocs and the lions. This sure is a motivational story for one of my upcoming videos.
That buffalo is very lucky being able to escape from the two top predators of Africa
Lol it didn't even notice that croc by him it thought it was a mosquito..
Buffalo's generally survive big cats
@darrellw dobson yeh people not buffalos im sure lions and crocs kill more buffalos
@darrellw dobson Wtf does hippos got to do with a buffalo surviving lions
It was just double lucky: the croc was small and the lions arent hungry
There is always a damn screaming lady.
🤷♀️
You always have to turn volume down first
Or A Dumb one
Feed her to the lions, crocs, just make her to shut up
That's not a lady. That's a woolly gynoceros.
Buffalo was like: this croc is scary, I go back to the Lions. At least I can see them
ua-cam.com/channels/jV7F1c03k64rvlb-amRH5g.html
The best part was that lady screaming, it adds to the excitement.
@@PurpleObscuration BEST par? That fucking lady was so fucking irritating
@JOHNNY TSIMOGIANNIS nature and everything
That lady was annoying. I wonder if this resembles the cabal watching us common folk go after each other's throats.
Buffalos wife: How was your day babe?
Buffalo: You wouldn’t believe me if I told you
😂😂😂😂😂
That's how it usually goes LOL
Hahaha hahahaha
100%🤣
And also buffalo can't speak
That water buffalo was amazing. He did all the right things to survive. Passing those genes to the next generation is a big win for their species
Moral of the story: Face the trouble head on, don't run away from it
@ghme 44 huh.... I don't think we watched the same video.
@@kenmuturi7381 he was probably watching this video ua-cam.com/video/xLHqGNKjYzg/v-deo.html buffalo are strong
@@kenmuturi7381 oops wrong one this is the oneua-cam.com/video/XYlmP9aX-Pw/v-deo.html
Sure, I would do that too if I weighed about 1000 kg an had massive horns on my head. But as I currently don't, I think my best chance against lions and crocodiles is definitely not going to be to face them head on...
Not true for the croc. If you stay in the water, you are done.
This Buffalo Is like wtf man. Everything wants to eat me.
😂😂😂😂💯
lol
Birds: Are we a joke to you?
That’s what you get for being a tree 🌳 hugger!!!😂😂😂
The Buffalo is like wtf man. Am i in australia or what.?!
Молодцы буйвалы... Один за всех и все за одного...
Kudos to the brave Buffalo. I would declare it "Animal of the year".
And after this buffalo was like "remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Jack BUFFALO".
Nature at its highest summit.
The running of impalas. The birds flying. The buffalo. The lions. The crocodile. All in one video. Extraordinary stuff here!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Buffalo thinking: *staying alive, staying alive, AHAA AHAA AHAA AHAA .... STAYING ALIIIIVEEE*
Hahahaha oh yea
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dead
It's AH not AHA you *FOOL*
Parth Dave, not very funny
Best wildlife channel 👍
Something I have noticed about the african buffalo, they are actually extremely agile for such a large animal. They can run and then turn completely around and stop on a dime to take on a lion chasing from behind.
Also the herd which normally comes to the aid of the victim always have that familiar determined trot when they approach, you know they mean business!
Wow Buffalo escaped death twice!... a happy ending
>scaped death twice
It was just double lucky: the croc was small and the lions arent hungry
💖💖💖💖
Talk about can’t catch a break 😅 I run from a lion just to run into a croc. DAMN!
The biggest lesson of the life - Never Give Up.
🤷🏻♂️
That whole scene was amazing. The way the bull fought for himself until backup arrived was insane.
I'm going to eat some Buffalo 🐃 wings tonight in honor of this soldier 😁
Gotta have that Buffalo credit he stood his ground and fight back, and survive for another Day
You
That buffalo fought off them crocs and came out the water like it was nothing, the lions was lowk shook asf.
"When things get tough, it's because you're closer to your goal."
BlueBee BeeBlue 🐝🌍🦁
Big life lesson.. Keep fighting even when everything seems impossible. God will provide a way. Never give up
Yes
You're right God will do everything to save you.
@@elsaporras1880 Indeed he does, I just jumped of a twenty story building and survived!
Praise the lord
AMericaN ..... ,.
What about those who dont make it? What does that say about God?
4:45 It amazes me how they form a sort of “barrier” around those drinking water. They’re keeping an eye out while their buddies take a sip. 👍
If buffalo just got their act together and stuck together they would rule.
My thoughts.
They Don’t have the brainsssss
@@selloi1869 its the instinct, even most aggressive Spanish bull ll also automatically run if it sees a Predator even if it could beat it
They are dumber than a needle
That would be un-natural.
Extremely stunning moments caught on camera...!! I am very happy that the buffalo survived. many many thanks to Kruger Sightings for presenting such an extraordinary video...!
Молодцы Буйвалы очень дружный существования...
Most powerful Buffalo in action...outwitted the Lions first,then,swam,,,counter-attacked crocodile,a massive one and again faced Lions and chased them....
God helps those who help themselves...God came in the form of Herd ..
Buffalo is my hero!
The herd helped him at the end but that dude did a pretty good job hanging in there on his own
Este Bufalo tem o meu respeito !! bravo !!!!!!!
Буффало будто бойцы ММА!
Сильные сами по себе, а в команде и подавно!
Герои!
This Buffalo is going to have some stories to tell his or her grandkids about the day when he or she defeated a pride of Lions and a crocodile & Won! That's one tough Buffalo. Love the will to survive!
I like Buffalo for the fact that they stand all together for one
Уважение ему за смелость и его друзьям за поддержку!!!
Hollywood needs to watch this video and learn how to write a perfect screeenplay.
Vlad Hardware these are better than those fake movies.
tell that to dwyane johnson...idiot is the king of crap movies
Couldn't agree more 😄😄
Yes… so glad he made it!!!!
Lesson: always stay strong. Last minutes can save a man.
Unbelievable! Did I just see what I just saw. A cape buffalo was able to defeat a bunch of lions and lionesses, and topped it up by defeating a crocodile in it's own territory. Waow. This is amazing!
the crocodile was small
That King Buffalo stood it's ground and Never intimidated by the enemies.!!🇮🇳💪🙋♂️
I am kinda shocked, I didn't knew buffalo's were this strong that they can overpower crocodiles!!
Shehzad Ahmed that was a tiny croc 🐊
I mean buffalo are known to kill lions
There's a reason they're part of the big five
I witnessed some buffalos took down the crocodile at one point.
Where there is will, there is way. Never Give Up.
This is a Buffalo Soldier right here. Bob Marley would be proud.
Man thanks for showing the world Real life Africa Wild , Love It💪
ดุหนังอา
I am proud of you buaffalo..good job...And thank you so much for this beautiful sighting.awesome...👍😍
That had my heart racing. Seems the lions had second thoughts after they saw the croc give up on that monster buffalo.
Yeah I was shocked, I didn't knew buffalo's were this strong that they can overpower crocodiles!!
@@shehzadahmed6088 Get a small enough croc and you can overpower it too.
Sooo lucky buffalo ....👍
Great! Herd Buffalo!
After he beat the croc he had the lions confidence def wild
Mis respetos para el gran búfalo 🤗👍
That Buffalo is a true warrior I thought that Buffalo was going to die
yeah he defended himself very well too
Nope, i know he will survived, the tittle tell me that
N to think he has to do it all over tomorrow
No eso sí es estar jodido entre la espada y ĺa pared
It’s amazing you were able to capture this video durin a concert!
Bravo 👏 bravo buffalo👏👏👏🙏
O what dangerous place for the buffalo. Save the buffalo Lord. Thank You Lord the friends and family of Buffalo is coming to save him.
Seems like a great beach for sunbathing and taking a dip
Young Buffalo: Gramps tell us about that time you survived an attack from a crocodile and a bunch of lions
Gramps Buffalo: Well son we were built of sterner stuff back then, but if you really must know, the story goes alittle something like this...
this Buffalo is the sports one XD🤣, damn, he is so fast doing 360 things LOL.
This buffalo should be the official logo of Buffalo Wild Wings.
Wow! This was jaw-dropping from start to finish; that buff was so brave;it just refused to capitulate however many lions were surrounding it;with danger beneath the water as well;and just a bit further on the buff is united with the rest of the herd..it's amazing footage.
Wow. Incredible. Lesson of the day: NEVER give up. Help is on the way. :)
No lesson of the day is keep the mute button handy.
When a Kruger video is longer than 2 minutes, you know shit is going down.
Yip! And this is still with us only keeping the action bits in. Did you watch the whole thing?
Kruger Sightings Yes! I didn’t expect the whole herd at the end.
Recompensa pela persistência, luta, determinação e vontade - continuou vivo! Se ele deixasse o leão trepar no seu traseiro, ele teria sucumbido. Muito foda esse búfalo!
Buffalos are underrated. They are actually quite strong powerful intelligent..and they can also swim very well!!
This buffalo should have played a lottery on the same day.
What a bullfighter...no wonder it's one of the Big Five...great sighting
Zebras would never have each other's back. They should learn from buffalo.
@joe n crypto Buffalos have horns to fight. Zebras don't have that advantage....learn
@@kenmuturi7381 Yep
Wow buffalo's are really badass. We praise lions and elephants for being strong fearless but buffalos are no less. In one video I even saw how an elephant underestimated a buffalo and kicked it on the head and then paid the price with a horn to its butt🐃💪
This buffalo deserve a statue in the savannah ,very heroic
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST !!!
What are the odds . A pack of lions and a crocodile. That was amazing
O búfalo se inspirou no filme " o Sobrevivente" pqp. Que sobrevivência épica. Salvação vindo dos companheiros vindo no final. Digna de filme!!
Never give up !!! many situations in the real life like this
It was so enjoyable listening to the annoying people. I also noticed there was some other animals doing stuff.
*Buffalo* : "I lived through lion attacks on land and croc bites in the water, I'm a survivor".
*Feminoid* : "Me too, a man romanced me many years ago, I'm a survivor"
Feminist: he likes my arse, I'm offended.
You two are both virgin incel losers, aren't you?
The lions at 1:37 are like "Hello there, little lost cow! Come ashore! We'll help you!"
I'm actually kind of impressed at the crocodile even tried it
This buffalo was very lucky even a medium sized croc would take it down or atleast damage and its also lucky there was only one croc cause they live in groups
It was a small crocodile. If it was a big crocodile, the buffalo was never leave the water.
It seems that the guys in this section don't know much about a cape buffalo . A big bull like that would be very hard to kill for a croc. Even a large one
No croc alone can kill a cape buffalo
At first, it seems like the croc got the upper hand when the water was deep, once that bull started feeling land under the water. That's when the bull had the advantage take the croc.
1:46 ouchhhh.. Very strong and healthy beast, admirable! Tough terrain for the lions. Beautiful video, beautiful place, looks like paradise, that green.. lovely! LIKE
It’s a bull in his prime. There is so much going on here. The lioness’s have there young to protect. If he is a dominant male the herd will know how important it is to protect him for the future. Like your man says in the comments above MVP in a quality outfit 🤘🍀
Talk about caught between a croc and a hard place.....I’m here all night folks 😜
We're not worthy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lions on shore and crocs in the it's the viscious reality of survival on the African plain------
Tip our waitress ?🤔
I thought your profile pic was some loud
Just needed a airstrike.
Unbelievable
I thought when it got out from the jaws of the Croc I said "that's it the lion's got this one" but surprisingly it survived
El nuevo rey de la selva.
Buffalo Are no joke man they size Give's them an advantage if it was an impala in that water it would have been dead long time ago
Buffalo are like buses. Miss one, then they all arrive together.......
Yeap..Very accurate words by you sir..
Often time they'll come to fight for their brother's and sisters
😂😂
What a comparison! Hats off
lol but i just watched a video earlier wherein they all ran from an attacking lion leaving one of them alone.
Holly stromboli ...true true true....ha ha ha ha
Buffalo you win. 🥇🏆
Well done buffalo! Pretty good moves for a buffalo.

gfgjhfff
One Amazing Buffalo . Normally you don't get away from a croc , plus a pack of hungry loins .
And the winner is that guy✊🏽✊🏽
4:05 When the hunter becomes the hunted 😁
3:22 look at those birds just chilling at the edge of the water as a bunch of lions run right behind them chasing a Buffalo
