I was rooting for the poor little baby buffalo, but I also felt badly when the lion was flipped. <BR/><BR/>In sum: I don't like to see anyone/anything get injured.

Then again, there were a couple of miracles in that video so who knows.<BR/><BR/>And the nerd in me can't resist pointing out that those are Cape Buffalo. I think Water Buffalo are only found in Asia.Woodrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03467758362728287442noreply@blogger.com
