This is the dramatic moment a young elephant fought off 14 hungry female lions attacking it.
The battle - captured on film by tourists in the South Luangwa National Park, Zambia - shows the young ele surrounded by the pack of predators near a watering hole.
As the lions viciously set about the youngster - who was separated from its herd - they begin taking it in turns to leap on its back and sink their teeth into its backside and legs.
But incredibly, the quick-thinking elephant darts into the water in a desperate bid to shrug off the lions.
