Stealthy male lion sneaks up on unsuspecting brother

The video shows the incredible stealth used by a male lion to sneak up on his unsuspecting brother to give him a fright.
Predators such as the big cats in Africa can be incredibly stealthy when they need to be. One good example of that is the lion shown in this video. With their cushioned paws, lions have the ability to be so stealthy that they can sneak up on anything, even another lion, without making a single sound. This ability is what is needed for lions to hunt for their prey in the African wild. The video shows a male lion using this incredibly stealthy approach to sneak up on his brother to give him a fright. It’s incredible to see how the male lion slowly puts one paw in front of the other, with every step being calculated. At one stage the male lion froze with one paw in the air, planning his next step forward while making sure his brother doesn’t hear him coming closer. The other male lion did not hear a thing until it actually scanned its environment and suddenly realized his brother was right behind him. It looked like the unsuspecting brother got a big fright and loud roars were exchanged between the lions before things calmed down again. It seemed that the approaching male lion was practicing his skills in being stealthy and amazingly managed to get that close to his brother before being spotted. If the stealthy male could sneak up on another lion, which has incredible hearing and overall awareness, he surely has the ability to get close to most other prey species.
