The lions are very hungry. They want to eat, and they are watching a group of elephants. Usually, lions do not hunt elephants. Elephants are very big and strong. But the lions are desperate. They need food now. The elephant group has babies. The babies are easier to catch. But the adult elephants know the lions are there. The big elephants stand in a circle. They put the babies in the middle to keep them safe. The lions cannot get past the big elephants. Then, some late elephants walk toward the group. One elephant is walking all alone.
