Lions have long been seen as one most frightening predators in world, but according to a new research, "super -predator" of wildlife - people - fear great cats. Lock Points Scientists observed the reactions of 19 different animal species in a national park in South Africa Scientists observed the reactions of 19 different animal species in a national park on South African cameras and placed next to the water holes in dry season The cameras with speaker systems were placed next to the water holes in dry season. Scientists observed the reactions of 19 different animal species, including buffalo, zebras, elephants, hyenas, giraffes, Jerusalem and Warthogs in the Kruger National Park of South Africa when they heard different voices. The cameras with speaker systems were placed next to the water holes in the dry season, where predators like lions tend to find and kill hunting. The cameras are equipped with a moving sensor triggered if an animal passes within 10 meters. Camera conversation publishes people's calmly -speaking records, roaring lions, hunting sounds and finally bird sounds as a control sound. At the end of the experiment, scientists had thousands of videos to analyze. In video published by Liana Zanette, a biologist of Western University, who pioneered the study, various animal species from elephants to Warthogs react to human voices and make quick escape. Installing Youtube content Another video shows reactions given lions, who are seen to cause elephants a more conflicting reaction, and elephant approaches and attacks publishers in an aggressive way. "The fear of people has significantly exceeded lions of lions throughout mammal community," study current biology. Wildlife was two times more in response to the sound of lions or hunting over time, 40 percent faster in abandoning water holes and responding to human sounds. Elephants in Kruger National Park reacted very differently to the voice of people and lions Finally, about 95 percent of the species in response to hearing human voices, faster or faster than the lions' roars faster. Researchers said the results can challenge tourism -dependent protection, especially in Africa. "These results show an important new challenge to protecting wildlife and protect wildlife, because even benign people like tourists can cause unrecognized effects," Professor Zanette said, "Said.
