If I'm not mistaken, the buffalo are doing it to a hunter.

Try feet??
I saw this too and copied it for a screen saver.
It's much like that video a year or so ago about the lions grabbing a buffalo calf, fighting with crocs over it and the buffalo herd's eventually rescuing the calf by chasing off the lions.
I have not seen it for a while, but I seem to recall one lion's getting tossed. It probably is still available on YouTube.

My mistake - it was way back in 2007. The YouTube video is called "Battle At Kruger" and has had 71 million views.

Aaron NeilsonWe just saw this very same thing 2 weeks ago in Moz. As we came over the hill, we saw the buffalo chasing a young male lion, and they were on his tail!
Unfortunately it happened so fast that we couldn't get it on film, but it was cool to see.

Michael RobinsonGreat photo - perfect position and timing.
I have never seen anything like this. In my experience, the tables have always favored the lion.
We have hunted the same buffalo as a hunting group of lions were hunting several times. In effect, we were hunting "driven buffalo" courtesy of the lions.
Sometimes we saw the lions, always females and sub-adults, pushing the buffalo through the tall grass; sometimes not.
It was cool to be competing with them as predators.
Of course, they would kill anything. We were more selective.

NakihunterMany years ago I read a report of an Indian hunter watching a jungle fowl hen leap up and hammer a tigress in the face with both wings while the chicks went into hiding. The tigress retreated in surprise!
