The pride mainly relies on buffalo for food, but catching them is difficult and dangerous. Tensions arise within the pride, with the adult males not always accepting the lionesses and cubs. Despite these challenges, the pride survives, thanks to the leadership of Oloborr and the protection provided by the four male lions. "Brotherhood of Lions: Buffalo Wars" is a gripping and thought-provoking documentary that offers a fascinating insight into the lives of these majestic animals.
