The term “Big Five” originally referred to the difficulty in hunting the lion, leopard,
rhino, elephant and African buffalo. These five large African mammal species were
known to be dangerous and it was considered a feat by trophy hunters to bring them
home.

Today, however, the expression takes on a gentler form, referring to seeing the 
Big Five—not shooting them—during [wildlife safaris](http://worldwildlife.org/tour_categories/africa)
on the African continent.

We’ve compiled 10 facts about the Big Five to impress your future safari mates with.

10) Buffalo’s primary predator is the lion. Buffalo will try to rescue another member
who has been caught. They have been observed killing a lion after it has killed 
a member of the group.

9) Leopards are excellent at climbing trees. They’ll often safeguard their kill 
in a tree to prevent lions and hyenas from stealing it. They are also strong swimmers
and occasionally eat fish and crabs
