Lions vs Elephants

[bladerunnerchile]

Teamwork...always works

[EHSJake]

It shows the true strength in numbers.

[Dwiight]

Theres like 12 Lions =/

Of course the Elephant is gunna lose

[sweetykimmy]

geez, i thought that elephant would've maybe whacked them with his trunk or try to defend himself a little :(

[Danieldeboer1701]

maybe cruel, but awesome vid

[cfraz277]

lions rule

[aikgtd]

The elephant didn't even put up a fight, it just ran.

[COSMICGATE56]

wow LIONS KICKS THAT ELEPHANTS ASS YEAH LIONS RULE

[skitty770]

lol not fair 10 lions against one elephant

[jericoholic2004]

lol elephnt got owned

[alohomorap]

nice video. Anyone knows what is the music playing?

[tehzeebs]

super dupper wupper WHOPPER with Extraaaa Cheesey cheese ....

[RiCHARD7o2]

Thats one heck of a meal right there!

[vavictus]

Spare my, elephant huggers.

The big cats are awesome

[vRaZ1el]

Damn good nariation. Very well put together video, music, everything....perfect.

National Geographic kicks ass!

[MAD2292]

lions rule!

[meimei14930]

I hate cats. Look at how many lionesses it took to bring down a small/medium sized elephant. The elephant should've taken one or two of them down by stomping and squashing them flat until their brains pop out!

[Slimebeast]

I hate cats too. I love oliphants, and yeah this poor one in the vid was only medium sized and all alone against 10 lions in the dark. Pretty unfair.

[NickNet1]

I saw an elephant throwing a lion with its trunk...! The lion almost flew away! It was awesome... I love elephants...! I like lions, but they're coward...! And at all, it's not Lions x Elephants... it should be: One Elephant x 40 lions!

[gilmanc]

What you rarely if ever see is lions being killed. You can't pretend that no lion has ever been gouged by the tusks of an elephant or the horns of a cape buffalo or rhinocerous. They are one of the largest land predators and need to hunt in packs. There is nothing special about this cat, but they make sure that you never see the carnivorous mammal beaten.

[atwyatt]

Wow, great video. All that 1st elephant would've had to do to get rid of those lions was roll over.

[h26v]

great video!two kings of the jungle

[PicturelyYours]

great spectacle, thanks for posting

[flawlesskat84]

IT IS SCAR, what gave it was when he said "RED" at 2:24.

[grand1danois]

Yup, the narrator was Jeremy Irons. The actor who voiced Scar in the Lion kIng.

[xheetah128]

Tigers can kill almost anything, except large marine animals and adult elephants. If tigers lived in prides THEY would be supreme.

[taximdriver]

It is true that siberian tigers hunts on grizzieas on foodshortage.. but tigers do that from back it is not a fight it is a geurilla fight.. If a tiger or lion ever tries to attack a grizzy from front it would be destroyed. Because tiger or lion needs time to suffocate..they aleays kill by suffocating.. But bear kills or breaks the spine mostly with two blows.. it is a matter of a few seocond.

[rwi979802]

no bear nor tiger in its right mind would EVER approach a lion pride. there for we will never no how this turns out. lions are pack animals like dogs. you mess with one you mess with them all. this is not a gang fight, ITS FOOD! i want a lion as a pet.

[weareadvent]

You dont mess with the KING!

[213SICER]

The females do all the hunting so the bitches are really king... FUCKEN LAME, the guys are pimping the hoes though so it's all good

[lemavh]

I've seen this ,I saw this on tv. those stupit lions cannot do anything to the bull elephant.those lions were only attacking young baby and small female.haha!!!

[coolreptile]

Holy shit you are right! That is SCAR from Lion King! Pretty cool...

[Teabone3]

hey the narriotor is scar from Lion King

[TRIDENT666888]

Also hans grubbers brother in die hard.

[sekim88]

lol terible

[woowoo09]

shit man.... thats bogus. 1 elephant against like a double lion pride lol thats not fair!!!assholes

[briosqui]

enjoy your meal!!

[MrMiyagiLee]

omg poor elephant 1 on 20

[omer008]

That poor elephant's ass got many bites. lol

[sierradawn12]

if the elephant would've used it's tusks it wouldve had a better chance i think.

[ANUBIS38]

siberian tiger could beat a lion best match nile croc african lion kodiak aka grizzly and a siberian tiger and throw in a komodo dragon who would stand at the end?

[emmachis]

Oh poor elephant :( it was only a little one tho and sooo out numbered id like to see a single lion take down an elephant in a fair fight cause ill bet the elephant has more of a chance at that one lol this video doesnt show that lions are the ultimate preditors a herd of elephants could take down a lion in two seconds it just shows the effect team work can have

[kanarvin]

a full grown kodiak bear could kill any cat with one swipe, bottom line..

[ANUBIS38]

i got the kodiak eve a draw or a loss the siberian tiger is about 3 to 400 pounds lighter but one swing from the kodiak would do serious damage but if it missed then it would be in a big problem i got who ever gets the full attack in first would win put kodiack lion siberian tiger and nile corc or even komodo dragon sick ass fight

[SamirElassaad]

Lions Truly The Ultimate Predators RRRRRRRRROOOOOOOAAAAARRRRRRRRR­RRRRR

[Njnetsfan15]

A Grizzly couldn't kill a pride of lion xDD That is hilarious. Lions kill uh Hippos. <-< Think before you actually post. And Lions can be taken down. Hyeneas and Lions are about equal, despite the fact the Hyena is small in comparison.

[Njnetsfan15]

Well, allegedly, a full grown Male Lion has been seen killing a full grown Cape Buffalo. Alone. That is very real though.

[Villie1]

lol...they make it so dramatic. it reminds me of that movie, 300

[idealopamp]

o....even attack elephants!

[BLIZEN]

HAHAHAHAH GRIZZZLY BEAR hahahahahaa

[Runny452]

Why didn't that fatty elephant just roll over? It would've killed them all with minimal effort. And here I thought elephants were smart....they're not smart...they're just cowards.

[lasbasmko1]

Pride = unbeatable !

[bubbaUK]

lions are fearless lol

[EatTinker]

They're hungry.

[Creativity2141]

Anyone know what the music is from the scene leading into the night attack?

[sumomumo2]

Hippos kill more crocs easily than any other animal apart from man.

[kakalukay]

yes, a siberian tiger

[Undertakerforlife]

To all the lion haters...THIS IS WHY THE LIONS ARE THE KINGS OF THE JUNGLE!!

Can any other animal bring down a lion?

[np67]

hahahahah crocs are king of beasts you dumbshit.

[Undertakerforlife]

hahahahahaha...yea right....apeshit...

[Jayc2400]

Grizzly Bear can take down a whole pride

[Undertakerforlife]

i whole pride can take down fully grown elephants, hippos, and cape buffalos...

people overestimate grizzlies...

you do know that most MALE BISON have been known to kill grizzly bears?

Pride would have them for lunch....

[Jayc2400]

Um.. a lion can't fight its only instinct is to go for the neck and would only fight among their type A grizzly is known to crush a bull head with ease. Grizzlies are strong, big and fast and have no fear

[xxEmpirionxx]

its VERY rare for lions to kill elephants

Male Bison can kill grizzlies because bears hunt and kill ALONE, not in prides, like lions. A single lion would get killed if it attacked a bison, or Cape Buffalo

[leonrene]

your are so ignorant go 2 "interspecies conflict" & educate yourself

[cheatingwanker]

what the commentator on about?hes speaking in some sort of weird dialect?anyone help/

[MzBeautifull09]

Thats messed up gonna attack that elephant

[Jonathanbooth]

everybody knows a lion is no match for an elephant...notice it took 7 of them on a young female?? I'd like to see a lion put up a fight like that against seven elephants!!

[aichalasfar]

HEEEEEEEY its brom doeing the commentary

[sphenoidjjj]

tigers all the way

[donovanpoop]

What is with the Coward stuff? It's Nature, I don't think either one of them cares about who's a Coward and who's a Hero. They are just Animals trying to sruvive... Lions Hunt in packs, becuase it's effective and thats how they can eat the most.

[andrexh]

are there any vids of elephants beating the shit out of lions?  i don't like these packs of lions attacking elephants (it really seems cheap and more about aggression than food... wouldn't a gazelle be tastier?)

[Epollitz]

They have recent videos of lions owning crocs so to say that crocs are far too strong for lions is an ignorant statement.

[ghalyahd]

in the nature all animals avoids lions even elphants

[cheatingwanker]

why has everyone on you tube got such a hardon for crocodiles?!fuck the crocs!on land there fuck all!

[MartinMa0815]

LoL! AGREE!

[vanbasten85]

Thats Why he is the king of the beasts... Lion'S Fear No other Animal....

[ghalyahd]

you can simply catch a crocs with bare hands , but dont try with a lion

[np67]

I agree, but lions are weak cowardly creatures.

[cjaccardi]

I saw this documentary it was really good. but the lions only attacked small adolescent elephants, the first one they attack with them riding the back just lays down for a while to rest while they are attacking her , then gets up and runs away without any damage the second was not to lucky , the size difference between those small elephants and say a male bull elephant is hugeeeeee .

[np67]

Those lions were cowards.

[zgonzales17]

ur moms a coward

[np67]

Your mums should have aborted you.

[hawkeye100000]

hence proved..Lions are kings of beasts..

Pack of hungry lions simply unstoppable

[tachikoma747]

i want a pet elephant...i could ride it to class

[swishpix]

Lucky for those lions, mommy and daddy weren't around. One swing of the trunk by a full grown elephant and it's instant death.

[MICKEYSMONKEY]

Heart breaking...Nature can seem so cruel...but I guess God knows what he's doing.

[Yulissa03]

I can't believe what i just saw!! Actually I can.. I was just in India and saw a lion vs. crocodile battle. The lion slaughtered the poor croc!

[np67]

Are you crazy??? A lion is no match for a crocodile. You must have been drinking Indian beer or something.

[cheatingwanker]

why is it no match then, explain with ur extensive knowledge of the animal kingdom,people wrestle crocs, you try and wreestle with a lion!in the water fair enough, on land, no chance!so go spit you croc shagging prick!

[np67]

A crocodiles "skin" is too thick you dumbshit. It cant even be called skin. A lion is weak and vulnerable and cowardly without the rest of the pride. A crocodile is not a coward. It lives amongst hippos who can easily crush a full grown male croc in its jaws. A crocs jaws can exert over a tonne of pressure. Thats why a croc wins.

[Undertakerforlife]

GOD YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT

SERIOULSLY

[np67]

Talking about yourself I see.

[trishasmomma]

ive seen videos where a croc was killed by a snake,cheetah,lion, and a tiger. croc's are most vunerable while on land. its while they are in the water that they are almost unbeatable. but i have seen them get killed in water too.

[np67]

A croc is not as vulnerable on land as people think. A saltwater/nile crocs "skin" is very thick. It cant be penetrated by anything. The only reason why hippos can easily crush crocs is because they have 1-2feet long canines that stab the soft underbelly. Apart from that and elephants and rhinos, the crocs dont have to worry. A croc can easily kill a snake, cheetah and a lion. The tiger is the strongest big cat and will stay clear from the croc in water and land.

[trishasmomma]

there are videos on youtube that show a crocs getting killed by a snake, a panther, and a tiger. look em up for yourself. yes, crocs are bad asses, but even they are vunerable at times.

[np67]

I agree crocs are out of their element on land clearly, but they really dont have anything to fear from lions, leopards and cheetahs. Just the elephants and hippos to be cautious of. The videos on youtube are of caimens and mugger crocs, NOT saltwater/nile crocs.

[meandwot]

this man chats shit lions aint nothin special pure animal stronger than them tigers crocodiles gorrilaz hippos rhinos elephants r decent but lions r wasted

[Gojogongua]

My dad can beat up your dad.

[mikafors]

lol....you're right. these stupid americans always think in that way!!! a tiger is stronger than.... and such silly things. thanks for your answer

[Steadno]

The lions are gonaa be eatin' real good for a while!

[orprodigy]

Elephants aren't stronger than rhinos.

[thewh0kid]

elephants are stronger than a rhino...rhinos was being killed by bull elephants in the africa desert for years.

[Bloodwolf1]

yea but give the lions credit they killed elephants that dosent happen much.

[Abercrombemonkey]

this is no big deal.. its an adolescent.. * TEENAGER* elephant.. but where are the other elephants? dont they travel together..elephants are very loyal.. and stick to each other.. and are known to mourn for their dead..

[bratkotenka]

ur answer is right their...it is an ADOLESCENT elephant. they're driven away from the herd when they reach that age range & they are the ones who are prone to be careless due to lack of experience.

[saikiran1711]

I was wondering if the elephant would have taken and about turn and started running and it would have mauwled

the lions...just all it had to do was to step on the bloody lions

[marter2006]

As far as the war of elephants and lions are concerned. An animal would do whatever it took to defend itself from being eaten alive, or killed. Elephants, buffalos, etc would not just let lions or whatever, kill or eat them. It isnt about liking or disliking lions, its about surviving.

[taflukta]

The first elephant got away

[therealLucianWolf]

Also the elephants here had been filmed for some time and had walked days to get to a waterhole, which is where the lions were. they were exhausted and couldnt fight as well

[therealLucianWolf]

this is bbc footage in the second half of the video. the experts on the program said that the lions waited until night, as they can see in the dark and elephants have eyesight comparable to humans in the dark. they also said that the lions werent capeable of taking down a fully grown bull, they had to go for the weak or children, but babys were proteced, so they end up getting adolesants.

[FILINCHO]

lions sure brought down that elephant cause it's a teen, going for an adult they would starve, it's obvious

[hudgeliberal]

Pound for Pound nothing beats a feline. Imagine a Lion the size of an elephant? The elephant would be dead in seconds. A hungry cat..will eat.

[Abercrombemonkey]

thats why lions have claws and sharp teeth and elephants eat plants and leaves.. you're dumb =/

[tubebunny7]

A lion the size of an elephant would die in 1 second because his body can't handle the weight. Not to mention the implications for his condition.

[nepaliwitam60]

if it was a full grown bull it would have put on a hell of a fight for the cats... its a kid hence dumbo.

i think in the secdond scene... if the elephant sat there and put up a fight, instead of runnin and wastin his endurance the outcome would have been different

[sexybebbot]

hahaha what the heck is that elephant doing running away from those lions! it should fight back!!

[pq3074]

hhm no one likes lions for some reason, i think its because they hunt in packs seems as though they are bullies i guess!

[taityboy11]

elephants own the outback lions a scared of them and only attack and elephant by itself if they are in a huge pack of 10 or more and still most of the time an elephant will come out victorious. Also tigers own lions

[Bloodwolf1]

pull your head out of your ass taityboy11 all the lion vs tiger vids show tigers running away or geting killed. dimsum3k and goldchain edit all thier vids to make it look like the tiger wins

[jimmycool123]

OMG

OMG

OMG

OMG

OMG

OMG

did both the elephants get killied?

[SITHLORD0076]

I like the ending part, ride him kitty!!!

[Siscast]

i love how the elephant tried to kick the lion at the 1:15 mark :P

[sexipants]

They killed dumbo. seriously tho its wierd how creepy it was to watch. elephants r so noble and mystical. lions just kill and sleep. impressive i admit; but i'm with the elephants.

[DonChilenito]

see guys Lion knows how to Hunt! (I love all the cats) they are the king of the jungel!

[DonChilenito]

lol a full grown elephant is max 4-7 ton only!

[mikeyusofine]

Lions can take down an elephant but only young elephants (they would distract them to isolate the calf) and the aging ones. The adult female elephant in the video if I'm not mistaken was able to stand up and escape coz I've watched that scene before on another clip. It's not the one shown being eaten. A bunch of lions taking down a single elephant would only show how strong an elephant is. It's no big fuzz.

[JoeyG777]

This video proves nothing. Theres like 10 lions on 1 elephant. 1 on 1 elephant would destroy. 12 on 12 elephants would creamate.

[MrFish86]

DlMSuM3k, I've never heard anyone call an elephant "overrated" lmao...

[EonGuerilla]

Raptors vs. T-rex from Jurassic park right there.

[Bloodwolf1]

lions normally dont mess with elephants but this pride does and they have killed full grown elephants also lions kick the shit out of cows sonofthedestroyer you sound like a tiger fan mad cuz the lion killed a tiger

[yjall]

nice ass video

[Mountexplorer]

A full grown 9 ton elephant cannot be taken down even be a dozen lions. There are videos showing lions attacking a single elephant. The elephant is not even running at full speed while lions bite him, some of them are top on the elephant but still they cant injure the extremely hard skin of the elephant!

Now consider that an elephant can step on a lion, with each leg carry 1/4 of 8 tonnes! (that makes it 2 tonnes smashing the lion's backbone.) Now does that hurt?

[sonofthedestroyer]

I remember watching a documentary where lions kill a baby elephant belonging to the Matriarch Female. The herd takes revenge by trampling and killing all the lion cubs after they locate the den. There is also a video (on youtube) showing a herd of buffalo attacking and destroying a lion pride cubs.

Herbivores can and do take revenge.

[tyjuly]

Wow Poor elephant! Nice video! Lions kick ass =)

[sonofthedestroyer]

Lions kick ass? Please type 'Lion vs Bull' on this website and watch the video. I find it quite hilarious!

[Cloudlion]

intense and amazing 5 stars..

[Silv60ss]

Awesome video, sissy elephant...has to run when 8+ lions attack.

[bratkotenka]

that elephant was a victim of a hunt plan, some1 annoys it & when it took the bait the waiting group springs out for the kill. while young they are not naturally skilled killers the adults just train them.

[DlMSuM3k]

Nice video, IMO elephants are the most overrated beast.

[sonofthedestroyer]

Elephants overrated? Have you ever seen a SINGLE LION killing an elephant or cape Buffalo? Mike Tyson can be killed if a group of average men ganged up on him. But one on one? dont make me laugh.

[xxEmpirionxx]

lol now the overrated beast is the Lion. I hate when everybody thinks a lion can kill anything in the wild. LIONS are overrated. That elephant in the vid wasn't even fully grown.

[WarLord2009]

Overrated?! then surly you haven't heard of the Muhgals.They trained their elephants to step on the lower bodies of men and then wrap their trunks around the persons torso and rip them in half, and to ram people with their tusks, 8 on 1 is not fair, elephant not overrated.

[ferreroR]

Actually they are not overrated at all. Those lions were lucky that the elephant didn't fight back. Have you ever watched a video of an elephant going berserk and rampaging? Its dangerous and a whole pack of lions wouldn't even dare attack it if it attacked back.

[blkthunderlion2]

under normal circumstances that may be the case, but the elephants have lost their edge here and that was the lions being cautious or afraid of them. These lions are not afraid and the elephants know it and are now reverting back to prey mode...flee instead of fight.

[VIEW8472]

I agree that was a small elephant a bull on the other hand is a different story.

[broodmongool]

Elephants no natural enemies my ass :P nice vid
