The lion, the king of the grasslands, is an animal with superior terrestrial hunting ability thanks to its large, robust body and excellent hunting skills. The hunt for elephants is always difficult for a predator like a lion, but this time a meal was so simple.

The clip of a sudden encounter between a stray baby elephant and a powerful male lion was recorded by a tourist at the Africa Nature Reserve. The content of the clip shows the young elephant wandering alone in the area near the lake without knowing that he has been targeted by the lions. The male lion silently approached the lone young elephant and with just one quick movement, the male lion jumped up and bit into the young elephant’s back. The young elephant was not strong enough and did not seem to be in the best health, so he was quickly knocked to the ground by the lion. A nearby female lion quickly ran to the male’s aid to knock down the young elephant.

Unfortunately, the young elephant became a delicious meal for the lions. Elephants are the largest and strongest animals living on land. With the advantage of appearance and strength, adult elephants always make other animals, including lions, be wary and find ways to evade. However, in many cases, the mother elephant dies or the herd encounters some panic situation that can cause the young elephants to get lost. With lost or juvenile elephants, they will often become prey for predators to target, before the elephants can return to their herd.

Thus, the ill-fated baby elephant ended its life and became a valuable meal for the hungry lions. The clip that caused chaos in the online community over the past few days attracted more than 78 views and 173 comments, capturing that thrilling moment.
