Battle in Botswana! (with shocking pictures!)

From BBC1's Planet Earth, a hard-won picture of a pride of Lions attacking a full grown elephant. A camera crew survived on minimal sleep for almost a month in the African bush in the hope of filming such an attack

Other than being quite lurid, this kind of (rarely observed) behavior in Lions looms large in paleontological arguments as evidence for pack hunting among carnivorous dinosaurs.
