Lions take down Kudu Bull next to safari vehicle

A dramatic video has emerged of a small pride of lions hunting and taking down a kudu bull at the Kruger National Park in South Africa.

The footage, captured last month, shows the incredible moment a safari jeep full of tourists get to within a couple of metres of the fierce attack.

One lioness can be seen bringing to the ground an adult kudu bull, followed by two other lions, who succeed in slowly killing their prey

"It was a very emotional thing to watch but showed the reality of nature," the filmer wrote online.
