The following video was recorded by Marc Cronje, a 29-year-old tour guide, in a wildlife sanctuary. Accordingly, a hyena, most likely lost from the herd, wandered near Marc’s area. The hyena was heading towards the nearby lake without knowing that it would be the final decision and the biggest mistake of its life.

According to Marc, the hyena kept approaching the lake without seeming to care about the surrounding situation. There are a few lions, sworn enemies of hyenas, waiting there.

And just a split second is enough for the lion to recognize this inattentive prey, and it immediately chases away the intruder.

The hyena was completely surprised. It quickly ran away after seeing the lion, but it was too late. It must pay the price for its subjectivity and lack of vigilance. One by one, other lions approached after seeing their prey caught.

In fact, lions do not eat hyenas, but being able to kill enemies competing for food sources so easily, of course they will not ignore it.
