Updated | By Jacaranda FM
Everyone needs to learn, even a pride of lion cubs in the Kruger National Park when it comes to taking down their first buffalo.

Thirty-year-old professional field guide, Christof Schoeman, caught this action on film in the Greater Kruger National Park at Tintswalo Safari Lodge.

In the video, the lioness leads the cubs towards the buffalo and that’s when the real action starts. Even though the incident is quite heartbreaking for the buffalo, the cubs learning the art of killing is quite something to watch.
