There’s nothing quite like the sounds and sights of the African bush. In a viral video shared on social media platform, X, social media users were given a glimpse into how animals feed in the Kruger National Park.
Skukuza Golf Club yesterday.Lucky sighting to the people that were there.(Not my video) pic.twitter.com/4RxTmm6NKu
The video, taken at Skukuza Golf Club in Mpumalanga in the evening, shows a pair of lions, hyenas and a crocodile feasting over a carcass.
The video was shared by social media user, @EdwardthembaSa.
Skukuza Golf Club is known as one of the most dangerous golf courses in the world due to its location and this video proves why.
The start of the video shows two lions feasting on their catch on the lawns of the golf course.
Two hyenas try to join in on the action, resulting in the lions making off with the kill. As the hyenas scramble for a morsel, a crocodile joins the group chat to grab any leftovers.
According to Siyabonga Africa, there is more action at night in the Kruger than during the day as predators take advantage of the cover of darkness to stalk their prey while grazers and browsers often feed actively at night because they experience less energy loss than during the day.
Unlike traditional daytime safaris, night drives allow visitors to witness the mysterious behaviours of creatures that only emerge after dusk, which is why it is a sought-after option.

Great sighting. I can't decide whether this is a coalition or a GNU.

I'm glad all animals involved here knew crocodiles aren't fussy eaters. Those animals themselves could become meal. 😂😂
