Then we saw some movement at the back of all the Zebras and Buffaloes, a BBJ running away from all the commotion ^Q^

While we where watching these animals we noticed that they where staring at one area very intensely, first we thought it was the other cars, but then we moved towards these cars and there they where........4 Lions(1 young male and 3 females) O/\ ,the Lions stood up and went to drink and that's when the Buffaloes mock charged them :shock: .
