Animal Survival in the Serengeti (Full Episode) | The Kingdom of Lions | Wildlife Documentary

Animal Survival in the Serengeti (Full Episode) | The Kingdom of Lions | Wildlife Documentary opens with an old buffalo bull walking alone through late season dry grass and a lion pride already spread out behind him. The lionesses launch onto his back, one lion is thrown into the air, and the bull tears free. The pride lets him go, because for a lion one well placed horn can end its hunting for good. Strength does not guarantee survival. What keeps an animal alive is the place it can still fall back to. Through cinematic footage and educational storytelling, this documentary follows five animals that lose their way back. A black rhino mother, from a species with only about three thousand mature adults left, turns to face a rival bull because her calf stands behind her. An African wild dog pack, among the rarest predators in Africa, fans out so that every sharp turn an impala makes runs into another dog. Two hippo bulls lock jaws over a shrinking lake, and the loser is pushed miles upstream in search of water. On the Mara River a million wildebeest crowd down to the rapids, the animals at the back push the leaders into the current, and the Nile crocodiles wait at the one place where every way back meets. 0:00 Strength Does Not Guarantee Survival 0:46 An Old Buffalo Bull Walks Alone 2:55 Lion Pride vs Buffalo Bull 5:11 Why the Pride Lets the Buffalo Go 7:01 Black Rhino Mother vs Rhino Bull 12:11 African Wild Dogs vs Impala 18:25 Hippo vs Hippo in a Shrinking Lake 23:24 Mara River Crossing: Nile Crocodile Ambush 28:11 Lion Pride vs Zebra at the Last Waterhole 35:23 Amazon: From the Andes to the Atlantic 43:32 Amazon River Dolphin in the Flooded Forest 47:30 Electric Eel and Piranha: Hunters in Muddy Water 55:25 Green Anaconda vs Capybara 1:01:30 Giant Otters vs Black Caiman 1:08:52 Jaguar vs Black Caiman 1:22:49 Lion vs Jaguar: Two Kings, Two Rivers 1:29:59 Serengeti Kopjes: Lioness vs Baboon Troop 1:45:23 Leopard vs Lions: The Meal in the Tree 1:49:18 Serengeti Lions Hunt Zebra on a Moonless Night 1:54:47 Himalaya: Snow Leopard vs Blue Sheep 2:09:33 Andes: Puma vs Guanaco 2:19:18 Bighorn Rams Collide in the Rockies 2:22:19 Lioness vs Warthog, Cheetahs vs Ostrich 2:30:05 Giant Squid vs Sperm Whale 2:40:55 Great White Shark: The Patient Hunter 2:55:42 Orcas Wash a Seal Off the Ice 3:12:07 Coral Reef: Reef Sharks to Clownfish 3:31:29 Kingdom of Lions: The Crown of Strength 3:36:31 Lion Pride vs Cape Buffalo 3:44:25 Leopard and Hyena Clan: The Last Crowns Epic Moments in This Documentary: A buffalo bull hurling a lion into the air and tearing free of the pride A black rhino mother turning to face a bull with her calf at her back An African wild dog pack fanning out to cut off every escape of an impala Two hippo bulls locking jaws over a shrinking stretch of water A Nile crocodile surging from the rapids of the Mara River crossing A lion pride ambushing zebra at the last waterhole of the dry season A leopard eating high in a tree while the lions circle below A snow leopard following a blue sheep over the edge of a Himalayan gorge #natureanimaldocumentary #ourplanet #wildlifedocumentary #natgeo #planetearth #serengeti #kingdomoflions #naturesmoments
