Reminded me of the opposite from the Frozen Planet series that ran in the spring.
A pack of wolves were hunting a herd of bison. They had been running harrying passes to break the herd up and pull out potential targets. The wolves finally found an immature bison to their liking and were literally dog piling onto it. With each wolf latching onto it, the bison was eventually being slowed down. Suddenly out of no where comes an older larger bison, and slams into the younger bison, knocking it and the wolves to the ground, and trampling over the whole lot. Downed, the young bison fell easy victim to the remaining wolves.
The narrator said they couldn't figure out if the older bison did what it did by accident or deliberately.
Or better yet....

It doesn't matter what animal you are, when a 2000 lb. buffalo comes charging you horns first, you get the fuck out of the way!

When you are being chased by a pack of wolves the important thing to remember is that you don't have to be the fastest. You just can't be the slowest.

Fast forward to 3:36
You'll see a wild herd seeking their prey!
I say, but credit goes to the hearts of the mothers and fathers for protecting their own.

Scanning the surface of the water, her amber eyes alight upon a threat to her pride - a deadly crocodile lurking in the river that the family of lions must cross.
The fiercely protective lioness did not hesitate, leaping into the water and grappling with the reptile to allow the rest of the pride to cross the river in safety.These images show the magnificent big cat fastening her front legs around the crocodile's jaws and dunking it underneath the water before making a break for the river bank at the Okavanga Delta in Botswana.
The lioness' brave diversion tactics were witnessed by wildlife photographer Pia Dierickx, who said the creature moved with such incredible speed she did not realise what had happened until she looked back at the pictures on her camera.
The photographer, from Antwerp in Belgium, had been peacefully observing the lioness and her pride going about their business around the river when the sudden clash between the big cat and the crocodile occurred.
The 48-year-old said the struggle took place within one second.
'I watched a lioness carefully move out into the channel and then there was a huge splash in the water,' she said.'The sequence of six pictures of the real action were taken in one second.'Luckily for the lioness the crocodile did not have an opportunity to do the death roll because her mouth was kept closed between the front legs of the lioness,' the photographer added.'It was only after checking my pictures on the camera viewer that I really realised what I had witnessed. Luckily the story had a happy ending because all the lionesses and cubs made it safely to the other bank.'The crocodile swam away after the incident disturbed an otherwise peaceful day at the Okavanga Delta.
