A group of safari tourists witnessed the rare sight of a lioness hunting a waterbuck during daylight. <br /><br />The footage shows the lioness charging and hunting down a waterbuck. <br /><br />The lioness can be seen clinging to the waterbuck's throat in an attempt to suffocate it. <br /><br />The filmer writes: ''We had the rare opportunity to witness a lion hunt during broad daylight as the majority of lion hunts and kills occur during night time or in the early hours of the morning before sunrise. <br /><br />''We came across a lone lioness and immediately noticed that she was extremely focused on something. <br /><br />''The lioness was staring at a set of waterbuck horns sticking out the grass, barely fifteen meters away from her.<br /><br />''After a while, the waterbuck male suddenly jumps up and starts running away from the lioness.<br /><br />''Big mistake as this behaviour instinctively triggers the lioness to charge and hunt down the waterbuck from behind.<br /><br />'' It was a sad day for the waterbuck but we were very fortunate to witness the circle of life in the African bush happening right in front of us.''<br /><br />The clip was filmed on April 17 in Kruger National Park, South Africa.
