Any resemblance to Disney’s movie classic “The Lion King” is purely coincidental, but netizens didn’t let it go. “Hold on to Simba, your father is on the way,” posted a user, referring to the scene where King Mufasa’s calf finds itself in trouble during a herd of buffaloes.
“Sometimes the hunter becomes the victim,” said another commentator. The scene has been a success since it was posted on the wild_animal_shorts_ profile, which shares content from the animal world and safaris in Africa. After all, you must not have often seen the king of the jungle scared like this.
Another user found it hard to believe that the lion would rather climb the tree than run away. It is true that lions are not great tree climbers, but they have that ability, just like a good cat. It is also believed that lions climb trees to protect themselves from the constant irritation of insect bites and as a behavioral adaptation to escape the sometimes sweltering heat of the ground.
A similar incident was reported in Kenya in 2015, when a lion angrily escaped from a herd of buffaloes and climbed a tree to hide. Fromaccording to daily mailThe buffaloes gathered under the tree and waited for the lion to fall. The video was taken by a former army officer who was exploring the Maasai Mara Reserve in Kenya, according to the paper.
