Tonkin says, "We saw two buffalo in the distance but stopped to look at a lioness and her three cubs. From another direction, we saw another lioness and then a lion running. In a matter of seconds, it all unfolded right next to the game vehicle. We saw the buffalo charging the lion, then the buffalo running and the lions in pursuit.”
