A blind lion lying on the road was soon surrounded by a pack of hungry hyenas, but, interestingly, the hyenas did not act as expected.
Normally, a pack of hyenas would not hesitate to attack and kill a lone lion that is clearly debilitated, as it clearly appeared weak with her ribs and hip bones showing and a coat in poor condition.
“In human terms, there is even a hint of pity on display,” Latest Sightings stated about the video from South Africa’s Kruger National Park captured by Steyn Jacobsohn. “Even so, the fact that they seldom come closer than a couple of meters to the lion suggests that there is still cautious respect.
“Possibly, the hyenas conclude that the lioness is no longer a threat, nor worthy of the risks involved in killing her.”
“The video concludes with the lioness still resting as the hyenas move on,” Latest Sightings continued. “Although we are left to guess her ultimate fate, the chances are high that she would not survive for much longer.

“As they say, old age is not for the faint-hearted. And this is also true in Nature. Predators often suffer lingering deaths when they can no longer hunt or fend for themselves.”
