Fullday game drive was very interesting when Alex and his guest came across two lionesses attacking a wildebeest. During migration the lions of the masai mara focus their attention on the zebra and the wildebeest.
Lions usually kill their prey by strangulation, but sometimes clamp the nose of large animals such as buffalos.
