WATCH: Dramatic Scene of Buffalo Tossing Lonesome Lioness Into Air
19:34 GMT 20.12.2017 (Updated: 19:38 GMT 20.12.2017) Despite being a predator, one tragic she-lion seems to have met her death in a struggle with a buffalo, typically her prey.
Staffers at Kruger National Park in South Africa unwittingly witnessed and filmed a large buffalo leaping at an emaciated lioness, twisting and flipping her well above itself, the Daily Mail wrote.
Lions are the only wild cats that live in prides, females typically engaged in raising their young.
