Thanks to its large size, teeth and sharp claws, the lion has easily become one of the most feared predators across the grasslands of Africa. This is also the reason they are named after the lord of the grasslands. But sometimes they also fail in bloody battles with giant elephants.

One quiet afternoon, accidentally came across a male lion looking for food when he spotted the baby elephant drinking water near the lake. The baby elephant was walking alone and there was no sign of any large elephant herds nearby.

Initially, the male lion did not rush to attack, but quietly observed and approached the subject. The cunning male lion took a step back, feigning fear in front of his prey.

The young, inexperienced elephant thought it was over and let his guard down. Immediately the male lion jumped up from behind, hugged the baby elephant’s back and knocked down the prey in an instant. By fighting experience, the lion quickly defeated the prey on the ground.

The poor baby elephant is struggling to cope with the pursuit of the cold-blooded predator. At this time, the female lion appears to help the male lion handle the spoils. Then, the male lion called the whole herd to tear the prey. The male lion in the video above used the strategy of watching and waiting for the right time to attack the young and experienced elephant.

It also pretends to be scared to deceive its target and make a surprise attack. Lions often hunt in packs and have a clever approach to catching prey. In this case, the female lion showed up just in time to help the male lion handle the prey.

Thus, with sophisticated hunting experience, the male lion quickly defeated the ill-fated baby elephant in just a few seconds. The recorded short video has attracted more than 695 views and 639 comments, capturing the moment that makes viewers thrilled to every detail.
