- The scary moment a male lion attacks a car just after mating with a lioness!

Chemical engineer (29), Mark Williams-Wynn, explained to Latestsightings.com the story that unfolded on the H12, near Skukuza, early yesterday morning.

“It had been a strange drive. I came up the H4-1 early in the morning, which is usually the best road for predator sightings at this time of the year, but on this occurrence, the only good sighting was of a herd of elephants crossing the road.
I had already planned to go back down to Lower Sabie along the H1-2 and then H12, so when I was stopped by a car to tell me to take the H12 turnoff because of some lions, I was glad that I would finally see something interesting. When I arrived, there was a lion and lioness lying in the road, and another male lying behind an anthill a bit removed from the road. Because the lions were on the road, the cars were a bit of a mess. I patiently waited my turn to get front-row parking.
People were slowly moving off and more arriving, as is usual with a lion sighting. Eventually, I got close to the front. By this time, the big lion had made a few advances on the female, nuzzling her and trying to get her consent, but every time, he was rebuffed with a fierce growl from her. After the umpteenth attempt, all of a sudden, he walked away from her and started staring at the occupants of the closest car. I guess that he either decided to see if he could impress his lady with some bravado, or else he needed something to take his frustrations out of. At this point, I quickly started filming, as it looked as if something was about to happen. Luckily I started the camera rolling, as, quick as a flash, he had attacked the car and turned back to the female, as if to say, "Look how brave I am." There was nothing that the occupants of the vehicle had done wrong, and luckily they had their windows up, as it could have otherwise ended in disaster. They just happened to be the closest vehicle to the lion when he lost his mind. The shaken tourists in the vehicle drove off shaken but unharmed. When looking at the reaction of the driver in the video, it did not even seem as if he was that afraid. But on speaking to them afterward, I think that they were fairly traumatised.
A quarter of an hour went past, and the crazy act of the lion was forgotten, new people arrived and everything seemed to be back to normality. Just another mating lion sighting in KNP. The female moved to the shade thrown by a safari vehicle that had parked to view the lions, and everyone was taking photos, videoing, etc, as one does at a lion sighting. But then, once again, the lion decided to see if the female was interested, and again he was rebuffed. This time, the closest vehicle was an open top safari vehicle. Thankfully the game guide driving this vehicle had lightning reflexes. As soon as the lion locked eyes with him, he started the vehicle and was already moving when the lion attacked. He did almost drive into another vehicle in his haste to get his guests out of harm's way, but a miss is as good as a mile. Unfortunately, I didn't get this second attack on video. But suffice to say, the quick reflexes of the game guide prevented disaster. All of the occupants of this second vehicle were ashen-faced after this close encounter.
This was probably the scariest thing that I have experienced in all of my holidays in the bush. The lion was just so unpredictable. I was not sure what he was going to do next. After the second attack, everyone gave the lion a wide berth. Even the female appeared to be abashed of what her consort had done. After a while of them lying in the shade I drove off to see what else I could find.
Mating lions on the road are fairly common. I've seen at least one pair every time that I come to the park. A lion attacking and hitting a car - I've never seen such a thing, and am glad that I managed to document it. It was good that the tourists had their windows up. It shows how dangerous putting any part of your body out of the window at a sighting is. Although I do not advocate having to drive around the park with windows up, this video definitely makes a strong case for doing so at a lion sighting, especially when they are right next to you. I also want to stress that the tourists did absolutely nothing wrong. In fact, no-one was hurt, simply because they followed all of the rules and did not panic.

"Lion shows tourists why windows should be closed"
The bus with no windows: 😐😐😐😶
Lemons touriseslemonsinmauritiuson
The lion will catch him
@@divyanshuvarshney6334 é! Realmente!
@@febredorrato i agree you
the lion doesn't attack cause it's too easy
He just wanted to shake your hand, or just shake you in general. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
💀🤣
😂😂
No. He wanted the window to be closed so if other lions are nearby they would not be able to enter the car.
"Lion Shows Tourist Why Windows Should be Closed!".....Then why there's a bus with NO windows in the back?!
Because of stupidity, that's why.
People think the wilderness is a fucking petting zoo.
Coz theu have waepons and animals are familier with it
Apparently the idiots don'r realize lions can jump quite high if they want to. They can also move very quickly, and could take out armed guards probably before they could even get 1 shot off.
@@Lonsoleil That vehicle is a park vehicle with armed guides in it. The lions are use to seeing these vehicles as well and are not bothered as long as you stay quiet and do not stick head and arms out!!
Because that lion is a paid actor
Look at the way he carelessly blocks the road, unbothered. Attitude of a king fr
Alpha mentality. Hes on top of the food chain and he knows it.
Even stray dogs don't move until you honk
Would serve him right if a guy just rams his truck
Wait till Elephant shows up. He is the true king, not lion
That's not the attitude of a King... that's pure inconsideration. Rude.
This is a very intelligent lion. He showed the tourist how to make sure the window stays closed and then showed them where he wanted the vehicle to rest. They followed his instruction and the lionness was amazed at their patience. He just wanted them to be safe and she agreed with him. Many lions distrust people because they have seen humans do so horrible things to each other and their habitats. These are very rational and patient lions. Thanks for the video!!
Too many vehicles encroaching on the lions' territory. But the lioness just chilling in the middle of the road. Love it! Mr. Lion says step back from my girl!

They are,and people hunt these lovely animals😢
Glen Miles I don’t understand how you could possibly hurt an animal..
Lions are so beautiful but their roars are so powerful and frightening! I was at the zoo and there was a pride of lions, Mom, Dad and baby laying in the sun very close to the viewing area. I just love big cats and I said to the male who was sunning himself, "hey pretty kitty," and he looked at me and then started roaring. The roars turned into grunt like calls and it went on for some time. It was SO LOUD, it was like it was coming from every direction, up,down,left, right! You felt it in your chest. That was when I understood why Lions are called King of the jungle. You don't hear that resounding roar on TV or in documentaries but in person? CRAZY scary! Wow. Love Lions!
Very cool story...👍🏼 ✌🏼
Considering they have the loudest roar of big cats.
@@zekejeager2451 Yes, and it's one thing to know this, but to be able to actually experience it, now that's pretty damn cool...
@@angekatts5584 Agreed, would be AMAZING.
You dared to call a male lion, "pretty kitty" to its face ?
I love how unbothered and unintimidated lions are by humans😂.
Would you like to see them in real Ash?

Don't ever underestimate these cats. Lions and Tigers can easily pull someone out from an open window without much effort.

Lmao
I get the sarcasm but The description tells a different story! It went after that open safari vehicle that is reversing away in the background. Then it went after this car. He could not film it on cam in time.
Where do you see ferocious at?
He was protecting his lioness! Good lion! (And this is why we keep our windows closed in the Kruger National Park!)
Wish all husbands protect their wives & children this way!
Mich Elle wish all wives do not ditch and play victim card. What goes around comes around.
Strange how they dont attack land rovers or safari Vans with people standing on roof or in the open
Mrembo Mweusi yeah! My thoughts exactly!!
Mich Elle wish all wives would cook and clean for their husbands and children the way a lioness would hunt for food and clean their family. If women want to get rid of their gender roles so should men.
Amazing courage by these animals - least bothered by the mechanical monsters roaring around them.
Amazing courage? These animals have been around these jeeps, cars and tourists all of their lives. They are used to it.
There are very few things that trigger their instincts. Food , danger and sex partner are the most basic and general ones. Vehicle doesn’t fall into any category and therefore is irrelevant to them.
The lioness was like, "You are being ridiculous." Lol.
Car was too close to his girl.
The guy really wanted to smash his woman but he didn't want an audience.

I think they just don't know the cars can run them over.
There's a bus in the back with no windows and the white truck with windows rolled down. Excellent!
Beautiful lions🦁. They didn’t attack but instead chilled😌
The speed of the paw is lightning , amazing creature
I thought the window was at least down 😒🙄. Nothing here to see folks.
MoneyMakingBarbie Bih really what the stuff u.r talking babes
@NonyaBusiness! The people in the other suv didn't get the point, their windows were down.
There is still a majestic lion and lioness within arm's reach. We saw three males during our visit to Kruger and it was the highlight of our trip to be that close to them. They are truly magnificent!!

Boy, it would really suck to have a car break down at that spot.
This lion was born to act. He knew this would end up on TH-cam.
What's wrong with these people who leave they're car windows open when obviously they are wild lions walking around
I certainly would have been frightened if I were in that car, but from an observer’s vantage point, that really doesn’t look like much of an attack.
Beautiful lions. When the male lion swatted the car with his paw, I wonder was he protecting his mate, defending his territory or both.
The lion looks like he's just been to a hair salon to get his mane groomed

Look Gir videos..
You should try that..and make a video of it
In one of my favourite books the author talks about a hang gliding trip to Africa, and tells the story of a British guy dressed in his fluorescent running gear going out for a morning jog on the plains, he was picked up by a ranger and given a good dressing-down, you can't fix stupid, lol
You need to close the Windows...

Pretty clear signs of aggression and agitation. The guides obviously recognized it.
That mane sets this animal apart. Truly the King of the jungle. He looks and plays the part.

He is teaching a discipline to the tourist who doesn't know the rule of the jungle where rule of conducts is laid by a lion.The tourist behaved with the rule humans and didn't know he is in different domain or kingdom.

SAVE THE ANIMALS SAVE THIS WORLD 🌎
I'm always rooting for the lions 🦁
Makes me so sad to see such an invasion of people, cars and cameras.
I get tourists and money will always be in demand but this is simply too much!!
On that we agree
It is the tourists’ money that keep this park and all other SANParks going and our taxes. But if you’re concerned, there are 1.6 million cars in Wales and Kruger gets about 1 million visitors a year (fewer cars of course).
Seems normal to me. After all, you can't expect people to just desist if they want to go see lions. Heck, I'd like to go on something like this one day. See a lion up close.

An open house with snacks inside. :)
I wonder how the workers felt when they first started constructing the road knowing that the lions were lurking and roaming around in numbers. It was a long road.

Imagine your car just doesn't want to start and you're stranded there with the lions. My anxiety 📈📈📈
Most living creatures feel shy and awkward when their privacy disturbed.
its not healthy to disturb lion like that just for our own pleasure, because they cant talk.
Can not blame them for being fed up with humans always on top of them for their own amusement!
Just think how quickly people who thought that it would be to go see wild animals if he would had got in. When the domestic animals don't give damn about us then why should the wild. I would love to see the outcome of that lion got in.
@bisquitnspanky yep, first rich jerks, with too much money to burn, will pay to hunt the animals down, then the land will be used for other things. Those tourists are what keep the lions alive and free.
Some of those humans are worse than others. I admire lions because they are ferocious, they're not corrupt, and they don't scam fellow lions or any other creature.
Hell, the lion was just checking it out. His aim was at the glass, not the people inside. Probably just noticed the reflections in the glass. No aggression indicated.
