Okavango Swamp Cats

- Part of a film made on Safari at Duba Plains in the North of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. It was here that Derek and Beverly Joubert made thieir superb film "Relentless Enemies" over a period of approx three months. This film is focussed on the Lions of Duba and a buffalo Hunt on our safari over a stay of just three days. Joubert it isn't, but if you like Lions I hope you will enjoy it.

That Lion was so cool just putting his paw out so calmly and like "Thank you ladies, I'll take that!" Lol!
That's what they do and harsh though it may seem the females know it will happen in return for which the male keeps them safe, at least whilst he is strong enough.

I saw the beginning of how that lion got her silver eye. And how they came to the swamp because of one lion. And she was the one that took silver eye out. It was because of a fire and she had to get away with her baby cubs. It's an awesome heartfelt story. Glad to see they are all together. It's not as beautiful as it was back then.
A fascinating story Catharine thank you. It was amazing how she had adapted to her condition and it certainly did not affect her ability to hunt. Since I took the video in 2008 things have changed a lot at Duba and the prides are more dispersed. More particularly it is now too expensive a camp for most people to afford.
They certainly were but it was their size that really impressed. Living in such a watery world had really increased their muscles and given them added presence. I just love the way they look straight through you or often totally ignore you. Thanks for watching.

What it means to be a safari is what this video showed. Wish I could be in that team! LOL. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you very much for your far too generous comments. I am really glad you enjoyed it. The Okavango is a very special place I just hope that the video gives a good impression of what it is like.
I loved this so much I had my husband watch. He is an audio engineer. He could not get over how well done this is! As good as any documentary!
Love this footage so beautifully edited...... the water clearly helps the lions from flies & ticks too, they’re so big & that Scimmer male was so pretty & handsome!!! Awesome video thanks for sharing it 💯❤️❤️👏👏👏👏
Hello Viti. You are very generous in your comments but really the inspiration for me came from Beverly and Dereck Joubert and their wonderful film called Relentless Enemies which was sited at Duba Plains. My amateur effort is of course not a patch on theirs but they had months to film their production, we only had 3 days but I hope I captured the essence of this wonderful place and as you say those amazing big cats. You could not believe the size of their legs and pads from living in such a watery world. Wonderful stuff. Thanks for watching it and letting me know you enjoyed it.
Thanks for the thumbs up. Glad you enjoyed the video
😨😴😄
Excellent. Relentless Enemies was one of my favourite docos. Good to see an update. Thanks.
Many thanks for the comment and I am glad you enjoyed the film. You are of course right about silver eye it was just that at the camp they were not certain. One guide had never heard of the Jubert's. It is a very special place though I gather that recently the pride has split and things are changing. That's life of course but at least we have the great memories.

Those are some big ass lions, the female lions are just way bigger than a typical one
You are right Wilson. We have seen quite a few cats on our visits to Africa but these were so big and strong from living in the watery terrain. Their paws were really big and they were formidable hunters. Thanks for commenting on the video.
Many thanks for watching the video. If you love wildlife I am just in the process of uploading a new video in Kenya you might enjoy.
Ma Plus grande Joie , C'est quand les buffles éventrent les Lions en les blessant , Souffrant Cruellement avant de Mourir à petit feu !
Lions rules are very difficult ,,but are so beautiful creators with their powerful attacks and powerful killing ,,I like the Lions , lioness and Tigers..
Very nice video, thank you
Great movie / video. I visited Duba last December and am headed back in November. FYI: Silver Eye lost her eye and sight in a fight with another lion. The Joubert's captured that fight on film and it is in the movie "The Last Lions"
Thank you for your comments Samir. The animals are very used to the vehicles and learn not to see the truck as a threat. The key is always to remain in your seat. If anyone stands up then it creates a different profile and might make it seem like a threat to the animal.
Lions don't care what u look like.If u fat they will kick ur ass.I know I was raise in Uganda africa
They really are superb and Botswana is a very beautiful place to visit.
love how the lion walks slowly carrying the kill @10:35 confident steps full of pride and arrogance like if the whole world underneath his paw
You sum up the male lion beautifully. Glad you enjoyed the video.

Great video, thanks for posting.

This is simply a superb video. Beautifully shot and narrated, and it does the Duba lions proud. Are you a professional filmmaker? If not, you should be. Thanks for making it clear that Duba, and indeed the Okavango Delta in general should be an essential stop on every safari itinerary.
Harish it very kind of you to let me know you liked the videos. I am very glad you enjoyed them. I hope to be uploading a new one in the next few days. I hope you will like that one too.

Thanks very much. I appreciate you taking the time to watch the video.
Hi, I am surprised the commentator said they did not know how Silver Eye had her eye damaged as the Jouberts filmed it in their film The Last Lions. It was when her pride moved in and took over the territory. That territory was held by a single male and only one lioness, who had cubs. I won't give away details of one of the most amazing films ever made but the lioness did that to Silver Eye when she and her females attacked.
Many thanks for watching and letting me know you liked it. It’s quite a while since we went to Duba but it was a wonderful experience.
its an realistic video and I amazed while I was seeing
Great video. Thank you for taking the time to post.

Thanks for watching it and taking the time to comment.
Nice video
Wonderful video.
Awesome post thank you. I'm going to Botswana later in the year, so this made great viewing. Thanks again.
Nice work! The answer to your question about silver eye, may be, if memory serves, the Nat Geo film by Joubert's called The Last Lions. A lone lioness is attacked by silver eye and her pride where silver eye earns her wound and nickname.

Long Live to the Lions !!
At the time I originally made this film I was reflecting the information given by the guide. Since then of course I have enjoyed and been jealous of the wonderful filming of the Jubert's and learned the story behind this amazing place and Silver Eye. I hope you enjoyed the video anyway.
Thank you for watching it. I agree not only is the delta an amazing place to visit but the wildlife is stunning.
So nice
In most cases you are right they will avoid water if they can but the Okavango is very special and crossing or hunting in water is the only way to survive.
Many thanks very glad you enjoyed it
Thank you very much I appreciate your comments. I hope you have a great trip and see plenty of Leo Panthera

WOW THE MALE loin has big ball!!
Thanks for your video. I read many articles and see lots of lion documentaries. I'm always amazed when a see a single lion or lioness or few lions facing fearlessly a buffalo herd. These lions teaches us how adaptable and clever they are. They learn to hunt as a semi aquatic predator, a domain that was believed to be only for the tiger and the jaguar. However, they are not hunting like these two other big cats. Instead they found some new hunting tactics that suits their characteristics. Reading a lot about the lion's history this lion abilities is after all not surprising. In history the lion was the most spread animal on earth. This shows their capacities of founding solutions to resolves problems. There were lions in the hot savannas and arid regions, in India, in mountains, in the cold regions of Siberia and Canada up the Shout America. Some of these regions were not traditional lion ground at all. Lions found a way. To no surprise, in 2012 National Geographic recognized this specie as the world's very top predator.
Many thanks for watching the video Ross. I can only agree with what you say about Lions. There is also evidence of their being here in the UK, a very long time ago of course. What I find so sad now is just how much pressure they are under now though thankfully some countries are taking measures to try and conserve what they have before they become extinct.
Muhsen you seem to have a distorted view of my motives. You will have noticed that my videos do not have adverts. I make NO money from them. I only post them to share my interests with like minded people. I am very pleased that so many do share my love of Africa.
What year was this documentary done?
+OTC I took the video in August 2008 at Duba in the Okavango. I'm glad you found it interesting.

+gerrybatch what ever happened to MaDiTau did she raise her cub successfully or did the males from Silvereye polish the cub off
Good morning Tony. When we were at Duba in 2008 there were no cubs at all nor had there been any for quite a while. Things improved in subsequent years but I was told last year that the pride had split and the whole situation had changed. The smaller pride had moved on and the buffalo were not being predated as much. The years of "relentless enemies" had changed quite a bit. But who knows, what goes around comes around"
Nice day and time and works
Thanks that's amazing wildlife video channel
The beautiful nature god created where life thrives on pain and death!
Awesome video.
Wow 🤗
That one word sums it up the experience very well. Thank you for watching it.
This lions are the bigest wild cats on Earth.
THIS SO TORMENTING I FEEL FOR THE LIONESS AND THE BUFFALO!!

Great job capturing such good lion footage. Well filmed and well edited. Very enjoyable to watch.
Sorry David. It looks greedy I know but he is doing only what he has to survive. During mating they do not eat for possibly for two, three or more days and lose a lot of weight. Also he protects the pride so he has to be strong and healthy. The females made another kill later so did not go hungry for long.
@shazzqsong my pleasure I am glad you liked it.
Many thanks for the comment Ahmad. It is indeed a wonderful place. I would go back anytime.

Nice vid
That herd of buffalos could have easily ripped off that pride.
That’s true in terms of numbers but behind this one event lies a long history of lion predation on buffalo. I understand the situation has changed several times since our visit in term of lion prides and the size of buffalo herds. My video was simply one short part of a much bigger story. If you have never seen “Relentless enemies” made by the Joubert husband and wife team, I can thoroughly recommend it. Mind you we had three days they took many months. Thanks for watching it.
The car is very beautiful!
Is there any danger that lions can attack the car and people in it?

Of course you are right Nolia. I made this video after our visit in 2008 but I would not mind at all going back to put the record straight!!

And it was very nice of you to let me know Yandava. Its always good to know that others share the same passion for wildlife. Gerry

Super docuimetary so nice good work
Thank you for your comment. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
I could not agree more. All the pride were big but he was just magnificent though a little thin after 2 or 3 days of mating. That’s why he took the kill from the pride. Thank you for watching the video.

I like animals too much
I totally agree. Thanks for watching the video.
what kind of animal is that make noises in the background? at 5:05
I think the noises you can here are cape doves.
Hi Gerry, I really did enjoy your clip, I hope to produce lion documentaries like you soon! Any idea of the progress of the young male that survived in the Last Lions? It was great seeing him as an adult at the end of the film. I learned a lot from the Jubert's this and their other film where the pride male Big John was murdered by scum trophy hunters showed that pride males will under the proper circumstances not kill and allow cubs to remain in a pride after a take over. Cheers!
Great job! If I'm not mistaken they filmed The Last Lions here as well. Is Silver Eye the same one from the film? Ma Di Tau must be around there somewhere as well. Thanks for posting.
I wonder how much firepower they have in the jeep, in case of an all out attack?
+vic vega You might be surprised to know that there was no gun on the truck. The only time out of twelve trips we have made to Africa that we have had a guide with a rifle was in South Africa or in Zambia when bush walking. Nat Geo and others always play up the dangers and turn everything into a battle but the day to day reality is not like that.
+gerrybatch Makes you wonder why they don't just jump up on the jeep and grab a snack!

I am not sure I fully understand your point Rubén but it is deadly serious for the animals literally one of life and death.
