Stranded in Africa and in want of a repast ? Why hunt it down yourself when you could snick it off a pride of Lions ?
go crazy ? I agree . But it can be done .
This practice — abstract food from another animal ’s killing — is known as kleptoparasitism , and while it ’s peculiarly common and well - documented within and between species of wild fauna , reportslike this onesuggest that humanity stealing meat from lions is actually a pretty common exercise . In fact , this packetfrom the UN ’s Food and Agriculture Organization indicates that we as a mintage have been looting lion - kills for ages .
The telecasting up top demonstrates how it ’s done . Things you ’ll need : some co - conspirator , spunk of unobtanium , and some serious swagger . great deal and spate of swagger .
Oh , and those looking to do a solo king of beasts - showdown would also be advised to bring a roll of toilet paper ; the lunatic naturalist in this video recording seems to think the TP will distract a curious / athirst king of beasts long enough for you to make your safety valve . Dr. Ian Malcolm would obviouslysay otherwise .
