WITNESS the moment a giraffe defied DEATH after it survived being dragged down by a pride of SIX lions for FIVE HOURS.

After a tense stakeout, three lions launched their attack on a nearby giraffe – one hitched a piggy-back whilst the other two clung onto each of the giraffe’s back legs.

The three remaining lions soon joined in as they bit at the giraffe to provide back up.

Despite weighing around 375-pounds each, this was no match for the 1,750-pound giraffe who plodded along until the lion’s tired of their attempts.

Photographer Francois Pienaar (29) from Hoedspruit, South Africa, captured the footage for Latest Sightings at Klaserie Private Nature Reserve in Greater Kruger National Park, South Africa. Francois stood around 100-feet away as he watched the giraffe’s five-hour ordeal.
