In the grasslands of Africa, lions are among the top of the food chain. With their superior strength and herd hunting habits, they are enough to kill many other large animals for food.
However, lions are not always successful when hunting. If faced with large prey such as rhinoceros, buffalo or hippo and especially elephants, failure is always inevitable.
In the video, a baby elephant has become the target of this hunt by the lions. It is difficult to keep up with the speed of the herd, but if you fall behind, the baby elephant will become a good prey for the lion.
Now they try to follow, waiting for an opportunity to attack. The baby elephant and the mother of the pack are separated from the herd, this is the right time for the lions to hunt, but the mother should not be mad and panic, because then it will be in danger for the predators.
At this time, the baby elephant always follows the mother, it is always in the middle of the mother’s feet. The lions could not find any opportunity to attack. they are always blocked by this devoted mother. In the end the lions had to give up.
