This is some of the best footage I have ever seen - Only the tuff survive.

I have lost all respect for lions.

Go Buffalos.

Amazing footage.

And they say animals don't have "intelligence" - what saw there was almost human in action/emotion by those creatures.

Thanks for finding and sharing this link, mabel.   That calf must have some really thick skin to be able to walk away from that many big cats on top of him for so long, not to mention a monster 'gator with a big chunk of him in its mouth while they played real serious tug of war.  That must be some tough hide!

A really awesome five minute video.  Should give almost anyone something to think about.
