The Tsaro pride at Duba prepares to hunt a huge herd of Buffalo	A huge dagga-boy with passenger seems indifferent to the Lions	This big bull faces off with one of the lionesses
The pride begins to fan out and move the herd	The bulls move forward to confront the Lions	A Buffalo bull can inflict serious injury to any Lion
The Lions seem to have infinite patience	A stand-off ensues...	Finally, the Lions begin to move the herd again...
The Lions wait for some hidden cue to attack	Some of the herd bulls decide to make an attack of their own	The buffalo are obviously cagey and very intolerant of the Lions
Back and forth the deadly game continues...	Buffalo chases Lioness...	...and Lions counter, but with caution
These bulls are huge and intent on seeing the Lions off	Suddenly the herd turns, and off they go with one lioness in pursuit	On this particular morning, the heat became too much and the Lions settled into the shade to wait for evening. This round went to the Buffalos!
