A screeching hyena appeared to be on the verge of death when a lion attacked it at a game reserve. The video can be watched below.
The animal was able to escape.
The lion pounced on one of the hyenas after they tried to steal the kill of a leopard, according to the video posted on the site. The leopard was watching the lion attempt to kill the remaining hyena.
The lions are down for a kill to decrease the amount of competition.
The encounter seemed destined to end in tragedy. Robinson said that the lion loosened its grip for a split second and the hyena took its chance and got away. The leopard was in a tree and the lion was gone.
According to animalfoodplanet.com, lions don't like the taste of hyenas because of their diet. The big cats like to eat animals that have more fat and calories.
