Just because a lion is a big animal doesn't mean it can't be stealthy.

This footage, captured around 20kms from Malelane Gate in the Kruger National Park on October 16 2018, shows a lioness stalking and killing a kudu. 

Without making a sound, the lioness carefully manoeuvres through the thicket before chasing and catching the kudu. 

This is proof that the lion is indeed the king of the jungle.
