Playful lion attempts to hunt a small bird
The video shows a lioness, stalking and trying to hunt a bird at a watering hole in a rather playful manner.
The lion is Africa’s biggest cat, and these cats are natural born killers in order to survive. When they are cubs, lions love stalking, chasing, biting, and jumping on top of each other during their playtime. These are all the necessary skills and actions they will need to become formidable hunters. As lions grow older, all that playful energy and actions become more serious and is directed towards pretty much anything that moves. All these actions, over and over, turn them into hunters to survive as adults. With that said, while lions are the biggest cats in Africa, they also have the worst hunting success rate of all other carnivores in Africa, with only forty percent of their attempts turning out to be a meal. The lioness in the video is no older than two years old and looking at her behaviour, she thought she had a chance to hunt the bird but in a rather playful manner. Whether the young lioness was serious or just playing, she was inexperienced and still learning. Older and wiser lions will never even bother with attempting to hunt a bird, as it is hilariously easy for any bird like the one in the video to just fly away a little, draining lots of precious energy lions will need to take down bigger prey.
