00:00 This is a perfect place for the white pride to rest and keep an eye out for prey.
00:07 Nearby, a hyena has a surprise.
00:12 A black mamba.
00:14 One of the most venomous snakes in Africa.
00:18 This snake gets its name from the velvet black colour inside its mouth.
00:27 But there's another danger here.
00:31 One of the three lion brothers who've laid claim to this territory.
00:37 They won't hesitate to hunt down hyenas and have already attacked the white pride once before.
00:45 The pride can't see the big male, so it's not easy to find him.
00:55 They see the big male nearby, but they can't hear the hyena's alarm calls.
01:02 Matimba checks it out.
01:07 The thick reeds keep her hidden, but they prevent her from seeing the big male approaching.
01:23 The wind is blowing in the wrong direction.
01:26 She can't smell him.
01:29 They are almost face to face when she spots him.
01:39 The male is not able to see her.
01:43 Without his two brothers, the male chooses not to pursue.
02:05 The hyena is still looking for the male.
02:10 The hyena is still looking for the male.
02:38 It's early morning.
02:41 Something stops the pride on their way to a waterhole.
02:46 The cubs are nervous.
02:49 They can't see it, but they can sense it.
02:54 They are also thirsty.
02:59 They take the risk and move to the waterhole.
03:04 The cubs are well ahead when suddenly they see what's here.
03:09 Three young males.
03:12 Not yet fully grown, but still dangerous.
03:19 The mothers keep a close watch.
03:26 They are not afraid of the male.
03:30 The mothers keep a close watch.
03:34 Drinking done, it's time to rest.
03:45 The hyena is still looking for the male.
