    This is pretty spectacular. Caught by tourists on video at a national park in SA, a three way fight between buffalo, lions and 2 crocodiles & the winner is not who you'd expect !

    its a classic, something david attenbourgh would have been proud of

    those buffalo's aren't as thick as they look they must have some sort of intelligence to all gang up like that.

    African buffalos are very dangerous animals, as the threat from them is not obvious. I think more visitors to Africa are killed by buffalo than any other animal. The indigenous population know about the dangers of this beast and so other animals such as hippos and crocs are more a risk to them.

    i saw in a documentary, buffalo searching out lion cubs and killing them on purpose........seemingly so that there will be less predators for them in the future.
