Tourist Rosa Swart witnessed a fight between a crocodile and a pride of lions in Kruger National Park, South Africa, Latest Signals reported on July 11. According to Swart, the Shingwedzi River forms an integral part of the ecosystem in the heart of the national park. Herds of buffalo and lions often pass through this area. One of the lions took down a large bull buffalo.

Two lionesses and their cubs were enjoying a meal after a successful hunt. However, their feast was interrupted by a large crocodile. The crocodile emerged from the pond and crawled across the sand towards the mother and cubs, clearly intent on stealing the buffalo carcass.

Driven by hunger, the lions refused to back down and give up their food. A tense confrontation broke out. The crocodile also did not want to give up the opportunity and took a bite or two from the buffalo carcass. Initially, it chased the lions to the embankment, but the lioness quickly realized that the crocodile was not their equal on land. They returned to the buffalo carcass and finished their meal.

The African lion (Panthera leo) is found mainly in sub-Saharan Africa. It is the only cat species in the world that lives in prides. Female lions are the main hunters, preying on antelopes, zebras, wildebeests and other animals. Male lions defend the territory of the pride.
