DAR ES SALAAM—With its dramatic depiction of an osprey stalking, killing, and eating a lion, a video released Tuesday reveals what alarmed scientists have described as a massive and shocking disruption of the global food chain.
The graphic footage, caught on film by a National Geographic crew in Tanzania, shows the sea hawk descending talons-first upon an adult male lion and tearing open its throat, an attack that effectively upends all existing theories regarding predator-prey relationships.
"It seems to be some sort of cross-species dietary free-for-all," said Clattenburg, now visibly trembling as she spoke to reporters. "I'm not even sure it makes sense to talk about food chains anymore. Anything's possible now. Big swarms of soldier ants could start taking out bears, for example—maybe even pythons. Imagine if bison suddenly became carnivorous. Or elephants, for God's sake.
"Suppose the lions and zebras and whatever else leave the ospreys unsated," he added. "For the love of God, what happens then?"The incident in Tanzania lends credibility to other recent reports of food-chain aberrations.
