A dramatic video has emerged of a pride of lions hunting a herd a buffalo at the Kruger National Park, South Africa.
The footage, captured last week by a nature videographer, shows the intense battle between the hunting party and the herd, ending with the capture of three adult buffalo.
"We recently went on a trip to Djuma in the Sabi Sands (part of the Greater Kruger National Park area)," the filmer later wrote online.
"It was our first drive and we were all extremely excited, it was late afternoon and the Sun was in the perfect position.
"We rounded the corner to find four massive male lions walking down the road, we followed them to a waterhole close by where they stopped to have a drink and rest."
"Not long after we noticed a big group of buffalo coming from about 300m away," he continued.
"The lions immediately took up their positions and we knew something was about to happen."
