in the grasslands of Africa lions are
famous for their hunting ability and dominance rarely does any pre escape the lion's claws but is that a complete truth to find out this let's join Viral
Nova to decipher the wild world through [Music] video scary lion risks
life attacking porcupine and what happens next first let's take a look at the spectacular
hunting faces of lions on the African Savannah [Music] you'll be amazed at the
strength of this [Music] animal lions have the ability to combi
ne into extremely powerful herds where they can take
down prey much larger than themselves even some of the other famous
Predators from the African grasslands can hardly avoid death when confronting Lions so is there any prey that makes the Lions afraid when they see it wandering in their territory however not all prey can
be hunted there are animals that are gentle but not easily bullied
and the porcupines are a typical example the stubbornness to attack
this prey has caused the leopard to
pay a painful price with the sharp spikes covering [Music] it the stubborn Predator that tries to eat porcupine meat will all
have to pay a heavy [Music] price sometimes with their own
[Music] lives so what about lions scientists have studied the relationship between porcupines and lions to have
a clearer View at the laws of evolution the lion seems like a far superior mammal a fierce Hunter with few enemies
but the much smaller porcupines seem to have a big advantage over
the so-called ki
ng of the jungle Based on data analysis the team found that lions hunting porcupines
would occur due to objective reasons some lines may have
lived in harsh conditions such as the Arid regions with few animals to Prey Upon therefore they often have
to hunt porcupines as a way to survive lons refer large hoofed
animals such as Antelope zebra or Buffalo when they make the choice
to hunt porcupine plants of food there must have been problems with the food supply chain especially if the habitat
conditions
in the area the lions are hunting and the food chain deteriorate the Lions will be more
likely to find porcupine as a way to escape their hunger another interesting thing is that
Young Lions hunt porcupines more often than older ones but the same animals
will often suffer wounds by porcupine quills in addition Young Lions like to
hunt alone and without the help of other Lions so they are more susceptible to Serious injury choosing a porcupine as prey is
a risky thing and a lion
can pay with his life leave your thoughts
Below in the comments section yes those are porcupines a typical species of rodents porcupines possess a thick and dense
coat covering their entire back this coat acts as an armor of
spikes helping the porcupine scare away enemies the sharp hard and easy
to separate spines not only hinder the opponent's attacks but also Lodge in
their flesh causing them pain for a long time thanks very much many predators have lost
control of the hunger and attack
ed the porcupine LEP are one of the most powerful predators
in the African Savannah it is also one of the most survivable of all carnivals thanks
to a diverse diet including both insects and mammals the porcupine was surrounded
by a heard of lions in the night but it was still unharmed thanks to
the spikes that have pierced the Lions the long spikes can point
out at many directions due to a layer of very strong muscle beneath the skin the lions were stabbed by the sharp
Thorns when they tr
ied to attack the porcupine in the many battles between lions and porcupines the lion is the loser most
often and suffers many stabs from the spines interestingly though despite being
injured the Lions still like to attack porcupines why is that [Music] however the porcupine is not an
easy target as the leopard may think with its sharp quills a
protective wall surrounds its body and the porcupine
becomes extremely difficult to overcome the leopard's attempts to bite and
attack the porc Pin
e have damaged its claws and teeth every contact with the porcupine
tough exterior brings painful [Music] wounds ranging from mild stings to
deep and serious [Music] wounds the battle for survival between the
Great great line and the Hedgehog that defends itself creates an
emotional and poignant [Music] picture of the harshness and
unpredictability of natural [Music] life [Music] thank you for watching till the end of the
