What a dreadful title and a bit of a con.
I thought by the title it might be attacked by other buffalo or a predator, but eventually it stand up and walks away.
Almost clickbait that title in my opinion !
the title is 100% spot on, it doesn't imply the calf was attacked. Such a title would read "Newborn calf abandoned and gets mealed by a Hyena".
Maybe YOUR the one who's clickbait!
@@Defender78 Sure 'terrible' doesn't necessarily mean attacked but I didn't see any other 'terrible' going on there, either.
@@Defender784:56
Not almost TOTAL click bait nothing happened the baby stood up and followed a female even if it wasn’t it’s mom it’s not bad it didn’t reject it
@reidbyatt6790 considering literally all their other content ISN'T clickbait, the title implies the calf lives as well so not sure why you think it has to die. Really the only person to blame here is yourself for being an idiot lmao
Looks like it was keeping up pretty good at the end. Go little one!!
Baby wasn't abandoned. Even domestic cows will leave their newborns while they go off to graze. The babies are "protected" by remaining very still. The other buffalo were just checking it out. They were actually quite careful in stepping around and over it. Still, held my breath for a while with those young bulls around.
2:30 around that time he went out of his way to not step on calf. Very interesting.
Even domestic cows babysit each other's calves also. I've seen an "auntie" babysitting as many as 5 calves at once.
It is not safe for that calf to be so close to that water hole,too many predators also visit that water hole.
Buffaloes are very pretty and intelligent animals .they work in unit
They're as dumb as a cabbage
Happy to see no predators is around. Wish you all buffaloes stay happy and peaceful till the end of your lives.
Don't be so sure.
Holy COW;
this little cutiepie is so fortunate/blessed to have such protective relations cos they dont seem to wanna leave until they know shesbok.
Man, life's so tuff out there in the wild where everyday cud b u last,all animals need t 'watch theirs (an others) backs all day long.
Hopefully she still safe.
Beautiful little baby buffalo, l will pray for baby ❤❤❤❤❤😊
He doesn't seem in such a bad state, this calf💞 I hope his mom will accept him and protect him, otherwise we know how it will end for this little…
Mom wanna have fun again
It is a very hard life out there and even the ones who get right up and start moving have a good chance of not surviving. The mother is not stupid enough to waste resources on it when she can get pregnant and have one with good genetics that is worthwhile. That thing would very likely get her killed. It will provide a good meal for lions including their cubs which have a far higher mortality rate than any of the grazing animals. If it were a farm cow it would definitely be worth saving. They have a much easier life.
You didn't watch the end...did you
Ya dont know so much about buffy's . But they may have been just urging him to stand up ,hense her moving away and the bulls coming over to get him up ! He walked off pretty gopd as you say . Often times cows especailly oversized calves cant stretch their legs in the womb and are handicaped or just slow to walk because of being all doubled up inside the mom . Maybe something like this has happened ? Wonder how this played out over time ?
how you know it's a ''he''?
Đây là những chú trâu hiền lành siêu cute đáng yêu là đây thấy cưng quá đi thôi dễ thương lắm nhé
Oh my heart this is so sad. Am hoping now that he/she is up and walking that that is the mother he is following. They need to suckle within the first few hours of life to survive. Fingers crossed 🤞❤💯
Sadly I don’t think it is going to make it
@@WildestKrugerSightings Am so sorry to hear that Kruger Park, thank you for responding
@@WildestKrugerSightings He should have been rescued and taken to some rehabilitation center like Sheldrik wildlife trust. You should have informed KWS or Sheldrik wildlife trust volunteers.
@@a.i2625 Why should they force some lion cubs to starve by intervening with nature? Just because you hate lions and want them to die doesn't mean they should.
@@WildestKrugerSightings What are u talking about mum is there at the end. Arent you suppose to be a professional?
Looks like the adults were concerned with the calf getting up and being able to follow the mother. Glad to see she was just resting and not hurt or sick.
How is this a hard start to life 😂😂😂😂 that normal Buffalo behavior
I don't get it....what's so terrible? All they did was smell it.
I think that they're trying to get it to stand up 🌿
Notice once the baby got up, the mother then starts to walk. Probably to catch up with the herd so no time to nurse the baby yet
@@laurelflint1866 I think you're right.
The calf's back right leg was not properly in place. He's unlikely to survive, but you never know.
It's called clickbait. Have a dramatic title just so people will click on the video and watch it and gain views. Glad I read yr comment so I didn't have to watch the whole of the ridiculous video
That's sad😔😢 the baby buffalo is so vulnerable it's an easy meal
THE CALF IS FINE. ITS MOTHER IS RIGHT THERE! Look, see the big one? THAT'S MOMMY. This video is deceptively titled.
Your very lucky to be born a human, trust me !
Modern day humans
unless you were born black 80 years ago
not worse than being born white today@@anomaly3215
Yes and No. Nature is 'horrible' to many an animal. Human nature (but a subdivision of nature) is 'horrible' to many a human.
Trust me (I'm a zoologist)!
Mum is out drinking again. She wont admit to having a serious problem. Sad...
Hope it finds another mother to adopt him.
I think the chances are very slim it looks like the calf has a limp and wont be able to keep up.
It is going to die
It's probably 1st calf for the Buffalo 🐃 mother the calf will be alright stop being negative people
It wont..it will die soon
@@WildestKrugerSightingshat " limp" is just the youngster getting used to being on his feet and walking. I think it's going to be okay. Plus, it appears the calf is already suckling a bit. Positive signs.
Poor baby buffalo 🐃
THE CALF IS FINE. ITS MOTHER IS RIGHT THERE! Look, see the big one? THAT'S MOMMY. This video is deceptively titled.
Life of any animal is cruel. I have never understood why they have to suffer so much to live.
They're not suffering. They're doing exactly what they're supposed to be doing.
The same goes for humans. Life is suffering for every animal, including humans.
It's nature lol. They don't know what suffering is. That's a human thing. They only know survival.
Maybe it’s not your place to understand. Nature is beyond your petty mind.
@@poluticon not petty. Naive. Nature is immune to our bullshit. This is nature's concept of "fair". Our version of right and wrong changes twice a decade. HOWEVER, even chimps understand the concept of "rude".
What was the 'terrible' part ? Did I miss something ?
This Cape Buffalo Calf seemed to be getting ignored somewhat by its Dam. The young calf normally is lavished with love by the Mother. Thus when I saw the Bulls approach to sniff the young Calf. The Mother seemed indifferent. Then once up on its feet. Going to the hindquarters to find the teats to suckle. This Mother pulled away rather than remaining still and licking the calf. It may be she senses something amiss with her newborn. Thus not having the bond a Mother should have with her Calf. I hate to say it but this Calve will not survive if the Mother doesn't start to actually let it suckle and look after it. Normally great Mother's but they have instinctual senses about their offspring. Hopefully it will be ok. Such is life on the African Savannah. 💪🏼🙏🏻✨
Misleading video. So many are bad news descriptions
The mother Buffalo didn’t like the baby’s father. That’s why it was cold hearted to the newborn
what could be the reason for rejection?
It looks like it has a bad limp from what I could see
@@WildestKrugerSightings still we have a lot to learn from nature.
@@tt5570
Agreed. And we can also learn a lot from nature. My three-year old daughterr developed a limp like this buffalo calf but worse. I took herr to a very remote wilderness area (using an all terrain vehicle) and abandoneddd her/left her there.
nothing terrible to be born surrounded by the protection of a herd. good thing he got up. been able to escape from predators is always necessary . a crocodile oe hyena is not going to think. "ahhh, its a baby....I will leave the family alone....!" on the contrary. baby it's a n easy pray
4:50 The Calf’s right rear hip looks displaced. That would explain its difficulty in standing and feeding. Unfortunately such weakness will quickly be spotted by predators.
Yes i think you are right
Could be. But it's having its first steps on this planet which are naturally wobbly. It started already running after the mother.
The mother is new first birth I think
Me encantan los búfalos y a esa cría es hermosa suerte bebé ❤️❤️🥰
Pourtant c est un animal ombrageux et très dangereux
Piccoli baby bufalo so belli
A mí también me gustan, me sorprende como logran vencer su instinto de supervivencia y miedo natural hacia los depredadores como leones y enfrentarlos valientemente incluso para tratar de rescatar a alguno de los suyos.
Totally thought the sparring bulls were going to crush it.
Same
That was the mother it was following
I'm not sure why the algorithm keeps showing me this channel. I hate it. Don't like seeing all the prey animals getting eaten.
CHICLAYO PERU 🇵🇪 🤝 🇿🇦
He was delivered and dropped to the ground. Looked around and saw mama. What he saw didn't make him happy. And he said to himself, "Oh Great! I guess I am a cow."
And you said, "Oh Great! I guess I'll find my fame and fortune in TH-cam comments"?

Маа как только его не убили эти самцы. Я так испугалась за него. Удачи тебе малыш. А мамаша тоже не особо его бережет
Can someone explain what the terrible part was?
Even the lions knew better not to get involved in this family dispute.
Hope mother and calf catch up soon with their fellow group else very difficult to stay away from notorious, ever hungry and greedy lions
How come the new baby knows where his food
God doesn't protects buffalo calves, he leaves the job to Darwin.
is not terrible start to the newborn calf's life as it is a terrible end to the life of old calves.
I dont get it. What is the terrible part??
There was family dispute and the baby did not want get involved. The bulls were arguing about who is the real father and when the case settle by the water. The baby left with her mother to get fed. Up until then, The mother will be responsible for the baby until they figured out who is the real father so that he can call him daddy.
That is so sad. It seems to have something wrong with it's leg. Maybe stepped on. I wish they would send it to a rehabilitation center
Immediately
@tonya7568 Buffalo never send their young to a rehabilitation center. Most buffalo don't have medical insurance.
It has a terrible start to life....how, exactly? He's walking off with Mom and looks fine to me.
It appeared one of those mofo's stepped right on the calf's leg. Locking up horns, stomping around appearing to be ready to fight, Mama off, and nowhere in sight, and a youngin' just laying there.🤔🙄
Calf seems ok. Just a little slow.
The gang was stimulating the calf, animals do that when they have a still born. If they had not kept prodding it it would have certainly not have lived. Next best thing after standing up is getting some of its mothers milk
Muito bom! 👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Imagine being born a prey animal?
We can easily make the big cats and big dogs go extinct but we're not doing it for sime dumb reason about ecosystem.
It’s the system of nature can’t interfere with the natural order
@@neozeon2567 that's a self serving excuse. we interfere with the natural order of things all the time.
@@shawnredmond8402 predator animals and their babies have right to live teaching their youngs to hunt starting with prey baby animals
@@neozeon2567 predator animals have the right to go extinct without us spending millions of dollars to artificially preserve them.
Total clickbait title. Implies a grisly end when nothing of the sort happened.
I think his diaper hasn’t been changed for hours and….it’s dad’s turn.
Dad be like honey the Lions are playing I can’t 🏈
1:33+) *Well atleast Mr duck is ok even if hes a bit nosy/concerned about the potential horror unfolding infront of him,sommuch so that he comges over an takes a free peek t check everything's ok etc.*
Is there any channels that don't have clickbait
How they know where the milk is
False Advertisement 😅Fake news 😅
Who else was expecting a lion to introduce himself to the newborn buffalo?
At least he didn’t get devoured by a lion (yet)
The middle part and end part for the calf are not great either. What are you talking about just a terrible start?!
Why the calf not walking
How quickly do they usually stand and demonstrate their 'inner buffalo-ness'? Nature has rules even for their own young. Like 'get away from watering holes in daylight'. Initially timid but a pass.
Clickbait, thought it was eaten
What exactly was the terrible start? Looks like clickbait to me.......
And that's how baby AT-AT walkers are born.
Why do you think it’s terrible start? It seems it’s very normal.
i was hoping for more lions
Any predator. Even a bird..and that little botje..is toast!
shame the little guy, it is nature and nature weeds out the weak and sick.
A hungry hyena hopefully
Still searching for that "terrible" thing
A doe gave birth in my front lawn. She walked away for a full hour before coming back for her fawn.
I’m waiting to see what was so bad…
Fantastic video
cruelty is a term created by people. from nature perspective it's another source of food for predators.
If urigotliv hand is chopped and served in supper, there is no cruelty, just another source of food
If only there was a Komodo dragon around.
That calf will be a meat stick for a lion, dog, or hyena
🔥🦁🔥
Annesi terk etmiş, onu annesi sandı arkasından gitti 😮
Terrible start to life ? Where ?
They've got babes back but WHO'S got theirs?
Mr Duck @2:44 is 1 courageous little fella f daring t approach Mr Bulll t have a word wid him on bad parenting;
MAYBE she's the family Advisor OUT on 1 of her field trips, altho' her actions must seem like BULL t the father
❤️👍
Bufalo recém nascido tem terrível começo de vida
Я@думаю что его мамаша тоже не подарок. Дурная воще не лижет его не подбадривает
Nature is beautiful and generous and ruthless, all animals know it, feel it, it is the most intelligent way of regulation.
How many lions have died from buffalo horns, hoof beating, even warthog beating, etc.? How many animals have died to defend their territory, their life, their young?
They all have the intelligence to continue despite everything.
The more I observe animals in nature, the more I learn to respect them.
The strong and intelligent survive, everyone remembers Notch and his sons, everyone knows the clever Lonkito, everyone knows the determined Makulu even Cecil, they survived, their story is wonderful, but life did not spare them.
La nature est belle et généreuse et impitoyable, tout les animaux le savent, le sentent, c'est une manière la plus intelligente de régulation.
combien de lion sont mort des cornes de buffle, de coup de sabot, même de coup de phacochère ect ? combien d'animaux sont mort pour défendre leur territoire, leur vie, leur petits ?
Ils ont tous l'intelligence de continuer malgré tout.
Plus j'observe les animaux la nature, plus j'apprends le respect.
Celui qui est fort et intelligent survie, tout le monde se souvient de Notch et ses fils, tout le monde connait le malin de Lonkito, tout le monde connait le déterminé de Makulu même Cecil, ils ont survécu, leur histoire est merveilleuse, mais la vie ne les a pas épargné.
thank you for a great comment, I agree 100 percent.
Lets leave out Cecil, he was poached by human not killed from mother nature. The rest I definitely agree
Lmaoooo it was laying in a grassy field on a sunny day next to water and family. Yeah sure looks terrible!! 😂🥴
Animals can tell when their own offspring are in some way unhealthy and therefore a bad investment in time and energy. Survival is not kind.
Возможно она уводит малыша в стадо, чтобы не отстать от сородичей
& what was so terrible here? Title completely off👎
and I came here expecting it to be lion lunch
Bubba following the mama .
Why terrible? Clickbait
Is it crippled? Well maybe just weak.
Huh.... but looks like thats thd mom in the in the end
Если бы не хищники, жили там в райских месте 😅
Not really, like me feeling a little lazy
Looks like a Monday morning for me.....😏
That's Gold 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That cow-buffalo did not seem to be her Mum as she did not have milk in her breasts.
Looks like the calf was registered by it's mother
Долгожданная мать пришла, ребёнка бросила одного😮
Mama knows, she already figured out that this one is not worth wasting resources on. It will hopefully provide some good sustenance for some lion cubs that need the good nutritious meal.
I have yet to read anything as sinfully cruel as your statement. Do you share that calfs heartbeat, hunger, fear, longing for the nurturing from
its mother. . . .no, you do not. So you have NO right to even suggest that this precious calf is not worth its mothers protection or resources.
Spin in it any way you see fit. Your comment was despicable and inhumane.
@@robyndismon394 I'm not suggesting that this calf isn't worth its mother's protection or resources. I'm just stating the obvious fact that it is not worth it's Mother's protection or resources, which is why she walked away from it, even though the cow knew it would die.
@@actionjksn Obvious facts based on your interpretation of this situation. I disagree with you completely. There are no 'obvious' facts connected to this unfortunate and cruel circumstance.
@@robyndismon394 there are actually obvious facts which are instead of letting it feed she walked away from it and ignored it. That is an obvious fact because we literally watched a video that was about nothing but her walking away from it.
The "ecosystem balance" shit is bullshit. No, the ecosystem will not he majorly disbalanced if lions go extinct. And if it did, we can always check the number of prey animals like we do in yellowstone for wolves and elkes. There is literally no real benefit of keeping big cats and big dogs. But we're spending millions of dollars so these predators don't go extinct. It's actually the lion that needs artifical boost to survive.
Don't worry. This plucky calf was spotted by a netfix talent scout and can be seen pulling a siege engine in Gourd of theKings. It was all greescreened so he sufferednlittle more than an occasional delayed lunch break.
He got put in a lousy dressing room too. All the way at the end, and the door was always stuck,s he had to butt his way in. He put it all down to ageism -- the newbies always get the shaft.
That was soooo terrible
Полетела мать, а на ребёнка ноль внимания
clickbait title.
