00:00 The pride of the lions has been starving for several days.

00:08 A lion can go a week without food.

00:13 But it is the fifth day and this pride knows that they are desperate.

00:20 In this situation, no one should rest.

00:24 Every lion should seek suitable prey to satisfy every member of the family.

00:30 Opportunities may not be repeated.

00:35 This three tons of meat would leave no one hungry.

00:40 With only five adult lionesses, it would be so difficult for them to overcome it.

00:49 It's a dangerous undertaking.

00:51 A hippopotamus can peer straight through a lion.

00:59 If they wanted to take down a hippo, they might need the entire mega pride to do this.

01:08 The hippo have fled and the lionesses are returning to their families in despair.

01:21 That night, the mega pride returns unsuccessful and hungry.

01:26 So far, they are still looking for something to fill their empty stomachs.

01:33 It looks like this big one hasn't left the area yet.

01:39 In a clash between size and numbers, both predator and prey consider their options.

01:48 The female leader makes her decision.

01:52 The hippo tries to flee, but this time she has the support of the pride.

01:59 To feed, the lions must knock the hippo off balance and pull it sideways.

02:05 The leader tries, but the rest of the family hangs back.

02:10 Brutally, they tear at the hippo's spine and rear.

02:16 Without help from a mature male, a bloodletting may be all they get.

02:22 But the hippo is not staying around for that.

02:26 The females press forward.

02:29 The adolescents are listless and uncoordinated, unsure what to do next.

02:38 The hippo takes advantage of the standoff.

02:42 One of the lionesses didn't see it coming.

02:45 900 kilograms of pressure clamped down on her skull.

02:54 With the pride still distracted from the vicious attack, the hippo flees.

03:07 This lioness is badly injured.

03:12 Only rest will bring some healing.
