A video of a mother giraffe and lioness fighting fiercely has leaked online. In the famous animal footage, a lioness lunged straight toward a juvenile giraffe. The lioness approached the giraffe before trying to kill him by jumping on him. The young giraffe was evidently taken over by the vicious beast because it was unable to protect itself. After initially failing in his attempt and meeting his fate, it seemed as though he gave up trying to run. But, things abruptly changed when a mother giraffe intervened to frighten the lioness away. A video of the mother’s noble act is currently viral online.

The viral animal video’s caption said, “The giraffe runs to her cub and saves it from the lion…”

Take a look at the video:

Internet viewers rejected the trending animal video despite the mother’s noble deed. Numerous people asked the social media account to refrain from posting such delicate material. Others also expressed their concern at the newborn giraffe’s near death experience despite the mother’s intervention. This is because the lioness bit him fatally in the neck.

As one of the users wrote, “I know everyone on here is all “that’s nature!!!” BUT, It’s a little disheartening some animals have more tools to fight back than others. Right? We’re all just meant to be eaten or to eat? Survival of the fittest. A baby giraffe/elephant/hyena/leopard/turtle, dog, cat, lamb. whatever steps in front of a predator. It’s literally the movie with Sigourney Weaver. Let’s be real clear on this, everyone who says ‘this is nature.”

Another wrote, This stuff sucks 😮stop putting shit like this.” The third one wrote, “It’s a lil sad to watch this.”

The popular animal video has received 82 comments, 13.1K likes, and 516K views.
