A Pride Of Lions Squeeze Onto A River Bank To Drink Water, Watch Viral Video
What was even more captivating was to see all the lions drinking water in a perfectly aligned line.
Lions usually live in social groups called pride. But there are very occasions when you see 20 lions converging at a river bank to drink water. A group of Safari goers in South Africa’s MalaMala Game Reserve were lucky to witness this amazing scene. What was even more captivating was to see all the lions drinking water in a perfectly aligned line. The clip, since being shared on YouTube has gone insanely viral with thousands of views, likes and comments.
The amazing scene was captured and shared by Nadav Ossendryver, founder and CEO of LatestSightings.com.
“20 lions squeeze onto river bank to drink,” reads the caption of the video shared on the YouTube channel Latest Sightings.
"It was our final morning out on safari here at the famous MalaMala Game Reserve. As fate had it, the morning started off rather slowly. We had been searching for the elusive leopard, but had no luck in doing so," wrote Ossendryver in the description box while sharing the video.
"As we made our way back to camp, something unexpected happened! It all started with a family of elephants bathing in the Sand River. Even though this may be a common sight on safari, we stopped to watch the elephants play. After all, it was our last drive; we needed to make the most of it."
"And then, as if it were scripted, movement in the background! Two ears at first appeared behind the elephants. We immediately knew it was a lion. That lion came down the ridge and started drinking right in front of us," Ossendryver further wrote in the description box.
He ended by saying, "We looked up back on to the sandbank, and suddenly another lion popped out, and another, and another! This was the Kambula Lion Pride that we had found. We began hoping that they would all come down to drink in a line, as lions do on rare occasions. Our prayers were answered!".
