Christmas Comes Early For Kruger Park Lions [Video]

Sometimes it takes great patience and perseverance for a pride of lions to bring down their prey, and other times dinner appears gift-wrapped.

I guess this is basically the UberEATS of the Kruger National Park.

Hannes Beeslar can count himself pretty fortunate to have caught this one on camera, because it all goes down pretty quickly.

Driving on the road between Lower Sabie and Skukuza, he had his sights set on a pride of lions when a buck decided to make a run for it.

Turns out that was a bad call all round, as everyone gets in on the act with relish.

Reminds me of the last time I set foot at the Long Street McDonald’s in the wee hours of the morning.
