So why did the video end ? Where's the part where the Buff stomps the lion into mush ?

Thanks Ruger for giving me a hint of the affair.
I am unable to view a lion or a leopard being destroyed, the way nature disposes of them.
I shot both with no qualms, but sure enough, seeing them being destroyed makes me sick for a couple of days. I am no sissy and too often unable of empathy, but not so with the big cats.
So be it.

I am sure the cat would have run off but with fatal wounds.

The buff who comes in to take on the lion "hooks" exactly the same as a Spanish fighting bull with the same results !!

I think she was unconscious from the first flip and dead after the second one.
Dangerous game.

Have to see if I can find other videos again. These videos feature a lioness with a huge flap ripped from her flank. I think the story was about rescuing the lioness and giving her veterinarian care and her life was saved. Typical greenie guff. Those videos look very much like the aftermath of this video. But did not actually watch them at the time. Have to find them again.

Hat off for this plucky lioness. That greenies tried to save her is a nonsense, being in contact with humans can only pollute her.

You never see documentary footage about saving the herbivores.

Great footage. I would think that Lioness is dead. Looks like the buff horn fully penetrated on the last flip.
