Three Legged Lion Eating a Wildebeest

We came across this scene near Grumeti River Camp in Tanzania.
This was an 8 year old lion who lost his leg (right side, rear) to poachers when he was younger. Half way through the video he stands up and you'll see what's left of his left. The local guides always keep an eye out for him and say they don't believe his handicap impacts him at all. Around him are his young cubs, each trying to have a bite, but the King always eats first, and don't even try to get a bite as you will see.

@use2slam2 Can a human run at 80mph? Can a human change the colour of its skin? Can a human flap it's arms and fly? Can a survive in sub zero waters? And a better question would be to ask your self have YOU done any of those things that you say humans have done? What makes you think that YOU are any better than any animal.

I mean I knew people from miami were retards, but you've taken it to a new level kid.

we humans ARE the top animal,has any animal discovered a cure for any disease?

can they save lives by performing open heart surgery? did any construct a space
