Disney's "The Lion King" is no doubt a golden-tier masterpiece that is beloved by audiences of all ages. But the life in the  African savannah is quite different from the movie. Male lions in a pride are usually very united; warthogs are timid animals and spotted hyenas urinate, copulate and give birth through their enormously elongated clitoris.

In this video, we explore the secret lives of the real animals living in the African savannah.
