Virgil, I think the lion must have dug into a fenced livestock area. That is what made the situation was so serious and potentially deady. The lion was trapped and the hunters rushed toward him when he was wounded and he had nowhere to run because of that fence. In the video you can see the bloody area on the lions chest caused by one or two of the bullets as he leaped through the air in slow motion. Those animals are tough. That is one tough way to get an adrenaline rush.
