Amber explains the story to LatestSightings.com: “After stopping for Coffee at Tshokwane picnic site, we heard from a man passing that there were lions on a wildebeest kill, just 5kms away. So we definitely decided to head straight there.

When we arrived at the sighting, feeling amped and totally unaware of what was about to happen, I found the right spot just on the bend of the loop where I could look down at the lion on the kill.

When I first got there, there were only a few (+- 5) hyena, but after about 10 minutes, the lion was completely surrounded by them. I could see cars a just a bit further up the road, which I assumed were looking at the rest of the pride, which I later found out that they were.

I watched a hyena for a while running around with the Wildebeest’s leg and then noticed that the other Hyenas were also interested in this leg. By this time, I’m extremely entertained watching the Hyenas fight over a leg whilst listening to the lion chomp on the remaining wildebeest kill, still unaware of what was to come.

Not long after fighting for the leg, the hyenas made a beeline for the lion and made all sorts of noise indicating that they were up for a challenge. This was when I knew something awesome was going to go down.

One by one they went for the lion, biting his rear and trying their best to get the kill but the lion was not having it and gave a good fight, as 1 male lion against 12 hyena could, for his kill. Soon after this started I noticed that the rest of the pride, a few 100 meters away, heard his moans and came running to help. This was when the females charged at the hyenas.

This all happened so quickly but wow! It was so awesome.

31-year-old, Organ Sabiepark, who works at Sabie Park just outside the Paul Kruger Gate, was able to capture this moment on film.
Organ tells us: “I have the best job in the entire world! Getting to spend the whole day being with animals, there is nothing like it”
This was the first time I’ve seen an eagle killing anything.
I was working at the picnic site, as usual, when I heard a noise coming from nearby. I started looking around and suddenly spotted the Sparrowhawk strangling a Jacobin Cuckoo.

When I watched the sighting play itself out, I felt sad about what was happening! The Sparrowhawk was biting the Jacobin Cuckoo and trying to kill it, all while the cuckoo was fighting for its life and trying to escape.
At the end, after fighting extremely long and hard, the Cuckoo managed to get away. That was in some way a great relief.”

Once in a life-time sighting of lions seizing an opportunity to hunt a newborn giraffe! The mother of the giraffe tries her hardest to save her calf, but unfortunately she isn’t successful.

A mother is always a mother. I remember my mother who took care of me so well inspite of all her sickness. Can never forget her. She passed away 14 years ago

This is one of the saddest clips I’ve seen.That poor calf must have taken ages to finally succumb despite her mother’s extraordinary attempts to save her:she must have been dragged all the way to the side of the road before they kept attacking,and the poor thing didn’t stand a chance.

She wasn’t more than a baby as she just couldn’t get up from the first ambush:you could see her struggling so hard.A mother’s love is a very powerful thing and the gentle giraffe defended her young till she couldn’t any more and it was heart rending to see.The footage is excellent but this was a bit too emotional..it couldn’t have been more than a few months old.Very,very sad.`

Tourists hanging out of their car at a lion sighting. This lion felt threatened and barked at the tourists. If he had decided to attack, there wouldn’t have been enough time to get in the car and close the window.

SANPark’s Rules: No part of the body may protrude from the car, either through the window or a sunroof, unless in designated areas.

That lion was ultra polite , he gave them a warning and then backed off . He knows what he’s capable of

If the lion had snatched one of em, the parents would’ve blamed the park authorities. It’s a shame.

What parent is stupid enough to let their two kids hang out of their car window 15 feet from two full grown wild lions? Oh, THOSE parents.

Khaleesi the Bulldog loved “The Conjuring” so much that we decided to watch Part 2. Needless to say she worried for the actors and tried her best to warn them of danger throughout the entire film but this scene had her frantic!

Literally barked at the Nun only. She knew and sensed the evil. This is why animals have the purest hearts ️ of all creation

This explains the random barking tantrums from my neighbor’s dog in the middle of the day when no one is home. They leave Netflix on to entertain him.

The way she sits it the beginning of the video is the cutest thing ever! I absolutely love your dog, thank you soo much for sharing her with me.

This clearly shows how animals have emotions too, she was laughing when they did, annoyed when the wrong guy came in etc. Seriously, I love her laughter though hihi

1:31 is no one gonna talk about how cute tina is when they just switch the camera to her and shes just swimming in circles

Bruh she literally yeets herself back into the water whenever another male zookeeper walks in and the sound she makes I’m wheezing

This is a video I shot of a 4 year old elephant named Suda painting a picture of herself at the Maetaeng Elephant Camp in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

They draw better than me. I never knew Elephants could paint. This is truly astonishing. Such beautiful creatures.

The steadiness and perfect strokes of it is amazing, elephants have always been my favorite animal 😉

I am speech less after looking this vedio..plz love these wonderful animals…

I can’t believe how graceful the elephant is while painting and so careful to stay on the line while going back over it. A real artist it’s amazing. They are so beautiful and lovely

He was just 4years old aww God bless you child I cried watching this. wish I could hug you tight and say that you’re such a sweet baby.

Thai people to love and care for all elephants that have to live with humans. He became a house elephant. Sometimes they have to starve and have to struggle to get sugar cane or bananas to eat. Elephants are truly valuable animals.

A child is a child, even if he is a baby elephant. How much love and tenderness the baby has for his owner. But they also love and feel deeply! Lovely!
