I think it tried to fly away but it had a broken wing or it just hurt too much, because it tries to get out of the pond but falls back down straight away after it escaped
Because after the Freeze response in this case, the duck shakes off (literally), the excess energy that was brought up to survive, and is back to a healthy nervous system. All mammals (except humans?!) do this, and it's why they don't carry trauma. This is the basis for body-oriented modalities for treating trauma, i.e. Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing.
Holy shit that duck is smart as something. Played dead as soon as it knew there was no way escaping then used the ultimate opportunity to flee. That duck had the last laugh.
How in the world did that duck escape? It actually is terrifying that it was fully aware that entire time and still had the mindset to take off and escape.
It’s actually really because they’re captive lion that don’t know how to hunt properly because they’ve never had to. She didn’t even go for the neck like a true predator would.
No they are all suffering, get a glimpse of reality when a duck comes and unused senses finally come to the surface. (They are basically deprived and retarded., comparatively.) Then the jealous male causes them all to lose the price and the weaker females turn on the male for his mistake(which he backs down for)... these fucking things are smart!!!!!
I love how human the lioness's angry reaction is after the others made her lose her lunch. They're like: "Hey, wanna share?" Sarabi was like "No. Go _AWAY."_ So my man Scar was like, "well if I can't have it _no one can."_
@@jrviade85 It has much to. The tiger looked like he was about to eat, but this comment suggests that the tiger wanted to hunt. Do you understand now smoothbrain?
@Semper Fortis The lion is not really capable of killig the lioness because that would be like a man killing his own wife. This only works if the lion is mentally deteriorated to a level where he would kill his own pride which ensures his survival and it would limit the prides hunting capabilities after all :P Probably 99% of men wouldn't be capable to do that mentally and probably 99% of male lions neither. It just doesn't make sense to kill your own family as a social animal...
@Semper Fortis The females angrily "verbally" attacked him probably because they were still carrying out the conflict that was started by the male lion wanting the duck for himself. But when you watch closely you can see that the "attack" f3om the females was initiated by the female lion that accidentally stepped into the pool, it looks like that lead to additional frustration and she immediately let the frustration out on the male lion, and the other female immediately joined in :P
@Semper Fortis I said he couldn't do it mentally, because he wouldn't murder his own pride. Of course he is stronger except that he would stand a chance if the females attacked at the same time.
Soo I've, rightfully so, seen quite some comments about how small the cage is. This cage was build in 1928, revolutionary for its time, but waaay too small and very outdated. That's why soon they will be building a new enclosure 10 times the size of this one. It should be finished in 2023. It's no freedom, but still a bit of a brighter future for these lions. Thought maybe some of you'd like to know. As for how the duck got in there. There is no fence over this enclosure. Wild birds can freely fly in and out of it.
Its very common for animals to steal someone else's kill, thats why big cats are instinctually incredible aggressive when they have food in front of them. In the wild the female lion would still be harassed by the rest of the pride and by other animals too like other birds, or hyenas.
@@Eric-tj3tg It's not like that, no. Westerners aren't newbies at zoos. We were at one time, and things went as they will for newbies. This and similar situations are more to do w budget and space constraints, not incompetence.
@@MPHammer he might be ok. Reason he survived at all was because the lions got into a fight but the duck played dead and just went limp which could've saved him from being mangled even further cause it looked liken the lion didn't really bite down hard as it wasn't visibly bleeding. But who knows
@@rowanthomas9181 And birds have a lot of feathers on their ass and the lion mostly bit into the feathers... It might not have been that bad after all and it's more than possible that a duck survives a few bloody scratches on the rump :P
La.parte mas.chistosa es q es porque la leona se cae el agua porqur pisa mal, y el macho justo pasaba atrás KEKW. Cualquier parecido a la realidad pura coincidencia
@@GabrielSantos_28 Lion that night: i was the king of the Kenyan savannah. I conquered territories, pushed away all other alpha male lions in my kingdom, overtopped the previous king and won, killed and terrified thousands of hyenas, took down buffalos with my bare teeth and claws... but those females... i just can't deal with them 😕
The male was curious about they prey, so the female growled at him to stay away. Forgot for a moment that ducks can fly, opened her mouth and the duck escaped. I just hope they wont make this mistake in the wild, or else they starve :)
@@EvilSapphireR yeah but if you watch he's ultimately the reason the duck gets away. The lioness who wasnt trying to get the duck and the one who caught it are the ones who seem to give him a dirty look
@@Wandervenn it looks just like a happenstance that the lion was the reason the duck went away, could've easily been the case when the other lioness was trying to snatch away the duck too. No animal is at 'fault' here really.
@@ali10833 Not all birds are stupid, some can understand the human language a little bit and say words and other are considered as intelligent as a 4 years old (like the crow or the raven)
@@digifairyWell, in the wild, a lion's territory isn't massive out of luxury. It's out of necessity, since resources are so few and far between. A *good* zoo enclosure just takes what's spread out in the wild - the watering hole over here, the hunting grounds a few miles away, the den miles away from that - and condenses it, just like a human's home does. So long as they have plenty of room to roughhouse and stay clean and keep outside of human flight distance to minimize stress, they're fine. They don't need miles and miles of land, especially since it's stressful having to constantly check boundaries to make sure aggressors aren't encroaching on the territory. There are terrible zoos out there, but there are also crappy wildlife sanctuaries, and poachers. So long as a zoo does it right, I see nothing particularly immoral about housing animals in them, any more than I think it inherently good for animals to be in the wild. Animals live where they live, and so long as the aren't being treated cruelly, I'm happy to see them in zoos just as much as on Natural Geographic. ^_^
@@walalo1356 no it's beauty.. Ever hear a gazelle scream? It really makes u feel like you are in the wild its relaxing and almost puts me to sleep (don't mean anything I said just making fun of a type of people that change everything to sound interesting by repeating their bull crap)
that male lion is gorgeous. The darkness of a male lion's mane is a biological indicator of health to female lionesses. it says "I'm healthy and I do not have parasites."
The second lion had little sister energy. Protective but wants a piece of the pie too. I like how she lays down to growl at the male at the end. They can yell all they want but they all know who's in charge. 🦁
Lion comes over Lioness " this is not in the wild, the rules don't apply in this part of the land. Btw they are not being fed well, look at the lion 2:06, you can see his bones. Get that place closed down.
The duck (named Donald) will be populair for lady ducks. Donald: 'I've fought against 3 lions and I won.. I survived'. Lady duck: 'Ooh Donald, please, marry me'! 🦆💗🦆
This is what happens when food sources are low. Apparently (I haven’t read the research myself) but alpha pack mentality was discredited recently for wolves and dogs because they believed that there mentality was innate and you could get a bunch of different unrelated wolves and they would establish a pack. But it turns out they all were scared for their lives and scared of low resources and fought each other for dominance because of food. Now imagine what humans do in poverty
This is like when Bilbo Baggins told the tale of how trolls were arguing so much about how they're going to eat him that they turned to stone and he got away.
