Big Lion Breaks Spine Of Youngster | Explanation | Maasai Mara/Zebra Plains
An explanation of the scene where a big lion breaks the spine of a younger male
Many people reported sound issues on the original video so here it is with slightly better audio...
It may be better with the subtitles on if you use earphones
A sad day for followers of the Topi Plains pride of lions in Kenya’s Maasai Mara, yet an inevitable one for those who understand lion dynamics. After the dominant male lion known as Lipstick passed away from complications due to his advanced age earlier in 2018 his partner, Blackie, abandoned the area rather than face the new force that is the six Bila Shaka lions. The abscence of males drew the Six Pack away from the Marsh pride towards the Topi Plains/Rhino Ridge pride (A breakaway of the Marsh Lion Pride). Some of the sub-adult offspring of Blackie and Lipstick left the pride but the young male here did not. Being the son of the previous dominant male lions is an unsafe situation and a combination of factors led to this sighting as discussed in the video.
The big male is known as Baba Yao and he was only doing what lions do naturally so please no hate...
The young lion had to be put down by the vets when they arrived as they determined that the spinal cord was severed and no help could be given.
Filmed In The Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya

About Rob The Ranger Wildlife Videos:
The purpose of the channel is to show what it is like to experience seeing wild animals on an African safari. Nature Documentaries are often highly edited to tell a story, wildlife safaris are not, and the idea here is to show the wildlife sightings the way they were seen. Safari tours in Africa are generally suitable for all ages and this channel can be considered an educational channel about incredible nature, some scenes in the nature videos may be more graphic than people are used to but this is the reality of nature and is what you would see if you were present on such a safari in person. Safaris in Kenya, South Africa, or any other African country are an unrivalled experience for anyone with a passion for nature, wildlife photography, and travel. Hopefully the animal videos on this channel can provide a glimpse into what the nature experience is like and encourage more people to take a wildlife safari one day.
