My cousins' favorite channel because they are always interested in seeing different kinds of animals. I'm not interested in watching this stuff, but I was fascinated by how the Lions attack their prey. I was working online when I abruptly stopped to watch the Lions and Buffalos on TV. It began with a lion calculating and targeting its prey. The lion's behavior was amazing to me because I was surprised to see how busy it was targeting and making sure it didn't miss its target. Lions obtain their prey in two ways. They will win by pouncing on them or knocking them over. Lions do not give up on their prey and will not stop until they achieve their goal; if they miss the first target, they begin again. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmepVDpLHXkx2xUwdkkCmh7zXuaC79sZgjuxYgipEjMr9o/image.png) [source](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2019/07/10/08/31/lion-4328196_1280.jpg) The Lion was attempting to capture a baby buffalo, and its attention was focused on the baby. They were two babies, but the main focus was on one of them. I knew at that moment that when a lion focuses its eyes on a specific prey, even if there are many prey, it only focuses on the one being targeted. The Lion knelt and tiptoed to get its aim. I was astounded by how sensible it was. This made me realize that animals, like humans, are wise and intelligent. They distinguish between what they want and what they don't want. They can easily attack their prey if they aim well and don't give up, especially when hungry, as Lions do. It suddenly pounced on the baby buffalo, and other lions rushed out to take their share. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQma5V5Coh335oCv5pvZhS5GfikpbcpbC13JeVvnjyKpUPk/image.png) [source](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2013/12/29/19/33/buffalo-235382_1280.jpg) The buffalos congregated to see what the lions were eating. When they realized they had killed one of their cubs, they became enraged and began locking their horns and scaring the lions away. I can tell they were resentful of what they did. Animals, like humans, are compassionate and empathetic. They know how to defend themselves against others and would go to any length to keep them safe. I felt sorry for the buffalos because I could sense their pain and grief. They had to fight back after one of them was killed. They attacked the lions in their territory in groups. They must have had a quick meeting to decide to attack the lions for what they did to one of them. The big buffalos took the lead, while the smaller ones trailed behind to meet the lions. Despite being the king of the jungle, the Lion is afraid of some animals, one of which is the Elephant. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUUfX1nCpKMbB78jaTxuc19BhNLGq95iYZBNAHRQwkMgb/image.png) [source](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2019/04/12/11/40/buffalo-4121944_1280.jpg) If I were to listen to them, they would be questioning the lions about why they had to kill one of them The Buffalos went away and returned ready to attack. I like how they handled the situation. They captured a baby lion and killed it as well, with the lions watching them from a distance because they couldn't do anything. Seriously, animals are intelligent and protective of their families. When you pay close attention to animals, you can learn a lot, as I did yesterday with the Lions and Buffalos. I was able to see animals that I had never seen before. This prompted me to watch yet another documentary on YouTube. A group of lions attacked the buffalo and struggled to bring it down. Even when it was surrounded by enemies, the buffalo gave it everything it had. They pounced on the buffalo with no one around to save it. Then another buffalo approached to see if it could save it, but it couldn't. It returned, and a few minutes later, the elephants appeared in groups, scaring the lions away, but it was too late because they had already knocked down the buffalo.The elephants frightened away the lions. The animal kingdom is united, and they look out for one another even if it means killing themselves for food. Because the animals can only eat themselves when they are hungry, it was easier for them to hunt and kill their prey. Thank you for reading. Have a good day
