Description:
A male lion managed to fight off three rivals on his own after wandering into their territory.<br/><br/>Perdita Lübbe-Scheuermann was on safari in Sabi Sands Game Reserve, South Africa, in April 2023 when a big cat walked into enemy terrain.<br/><br/>Dramatic footage filmed by Perdita just 10 metres away shows the encroaching lion surrounded by two more before another pounced at his back.<br/><br/>Despite the numbers disadvantage, the singular lion viciously swiped back at the trio and flashed his sharp teeth to drive them all away.<br/><br/>Perdita said: “I’ve been visiting South Africa on safari for more than 20 years but I had never seen lions fight like this before.<br/><br/>“To see it all happen just 10 metres from our jeep was extremely special. Fortunately none of the lions were injured.<br/><br/>“The one lion that encroached into the territory did fight off the other three but after hanging around for another 20 minutes it left.”
