It was actually on, what is now, the Ol pejeta conservancy.(Nanyuki) Then it was the Sweetwaters private reserve. A great place now, as they have three of the last seven Northern white Rhino, which they hope to get to breed.
There were three males all together, and it would be unlikely if only one lion brought the giraffe down, and we beleive the giraffe may have been sick. I know what you mean re: age. These lions are about 3/4 years old. The lions here on Ol Pejeta conservancy do not grow big manes like in the masai mara. The attack took place at night, to dark to film, this footage was taken the next morning.

@PHALANX47 Was it just one lion that hunted and killed this giraffe or was it a pride? At the beginning only one lion eats and it seems pretty young.
