March 5, 2013 - While on a safari in Tanzania, we saw 7 lions - 4 lionesses and 3 young males - take down and begin eating a Cape buffalo over the course of 3 hours. The buffalo had a buddy who came to the rescue several times, but eventually had to give up. This is the second of 4 short videos showing the attacks, rescue, feeding frenzy, and vain attempts to escape. • • Lions attack Cape buffalo in Ngorongo... 9:30 AM - The buddy moves far enough away so the lions attack. The buddy returns and chases them off. • • Lions attack Cape buffalo in Ngorongo... 9:50 AM - Lions bring down buffalo, buddy does not return • • Lions attack Cape buffalo in Ngorongo... 10:10 AM - Buffalo manages to get up, in spite of feeding lions • • Lions Attack Cape Buffalo in Ngorongo... 10:17 AM - One last time, buffalo manages to get up briefly. Flock of crowned cranes fly over. • We all thought the following fun to watch. One of several Serengeti lions resting in a tree, falls out of the tree, after vainly trying to hang on for a few seconds. No harm done: • • Serengeti Lion Falls Out of Tree DSCN... • And here is an unbelievable number of hippos in a small pond. I cannot imagine how dirty that water must have been. • • Hippos in Serengeti DSCN1753 • To see more of our Tanzania Kilimanjaro climb and safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater (along with some fun negotiating in Arusha) visit • http://www.nbrhd.net/Tanzania/Tanzani... • Later in the afternoon we returned to the site of the kill. One of the lions walked over to the Land Rover, looking for shade, apparently having had his fill of buffalo. Here is a video of the lion walking around our Land Rover: • • Lion Coming To Rest In Shade of Land ... • Later in the safari we saw some more interesting lion activities in the Serengeti: • Serengeti Lions mating by the side of the road as we watched: • • Serengeti Lions Mate, First Time DSCN... • 5 minutes later, the lions mate again: • • Lions Mating, Serengeti, Tanzania DSC... • To climb Mt. Kilimanjaro and safari through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania, I chose to use Thomson Safaris, primarily because it was recommended by National Geographic and because it got many good write-ups. Thomson Safaris www.thomsonsafaris.com/ delivered everything they promised, when they promised. I recommend them.
