If you live in Australia you probably caught this video on Channel Nine's 'i-caught' show which premiered here tonight. It's an American show (or at least the host is American) and 'Battle at Kruger' was the very first video they showed.
As far as wildlife videos go this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. This has got everything, water buffalo, lions and a crocodile all battling it out over a baby buffalo that could well be both the luckiest and unluckiest offspring on the planet.
The lesson here is that even the kings (or in this case queens) of the jungle shouldn't get between a mother water buffalo and its baby.
Watch the video and be amazed.
I decided not see Captain America: Brave New World in a cinema because everything I heard about the film pointed to a disjointed mess, from testing poorly, to whole characters being added in during reshoots. The trailers looked okay but, since they featured Red Hulk, quite a bit, it felt like there wasn't much left as a drawcard for seeing the film in a cinema.

The story revolves around a plot to kill the newly elected US President, former General Thaddeus Ross (Harrison Ford). Captain America (Anthony Mackie) must find who is the real mastermind in order to clear his friend and the original Super Solider, Isaiah Bradley's (Carl Lumbly), name. I...
Awesome! Just shows how the herd can win if they all gang up! I would have thought that young one would have been too badly injured, what with the croc and the three lions1 It looked OK though.
ReplyDeleteTook that buffalo quite awhile to get back with the herd. That last lion was game - you would have thought it would have given up sooner!
I went to look in my TV paper when you said this program had been on, as hadn't seen it.
ReplyDeleteI saw it was indeed on, but as far as I know, there have been no promos for it, not even in my Sunday Times TV mag, so that's why I missed it. Will have a look next time, or tape it if it clashes with something, to see what it is.
