Also- for an amatuer piece - good camerwork and clarity. The first safari video I've seen from Ngorongoro that doesn't sound like a hurricane! Only downside was the 'narrating'...

Whenever theres a carcass theres Jackals waiting for their share.

Lions do not like hyenas but that does not mean every time they encounter one they have to kill it. The male could have killed that hyena but for some reason let it go - he was probably more interested in the buff carcass.

(mice..birds) Nobody is saying hyaenas are lion-proof nor made of adamantium, but they can survive a Lion attack intended to kill them and have done on multiple occasions. But this is already in the 'Lion vs hyaenas' video / image gallery thread.

Must be an evolutionary adaptation to help them survive alongside felines.

The Hyena appeared to be somewhat paralyzed after the initial male Lion attack & please elaborate on this 'play dead' theory of yours. & I apologize Canidae as this is the most active I've been in a very long time & I really had no idea what was in the vid/pic gallery tbh.
