I am not sure but I am willing to guess that there aren't more than a handful of calves as lucky as this one.
Originally posted by nihilismorIndeed. I wonder what shape the calf was in after mauling by those lions. It walked away but did anyone follow up to see if it survived the wounds? Great Video for sure.

I'm surprised by how little violent movement takes place in most of these beast-on-beast battles. For example, lion leaps up and clings to the elephant's back...lions jogging and taking relaxed looking swipes at it's butt...I guess true berserk rages are rare among the animals.
This one's an exception:
