Nice video dilip. Thanks for posting.
I think this video is more about animal instinct than courage.
The last part (Cheetah , Hyena and the doe) is out of place. The Hyena is not trying to save the doe. It is actually trying to snatch / steal the kill from the Cheetah (assuming the doe is already dead). Both predators get a shock when they see the Impala get up and run away.

The first cape-buffalo that hooks the lioness seems to be a bull.

I have been watching this video again and again.
Though instinctive , there is a philosophical / spiritual aspect to this video.
We humans consider ourselves superior in all aspects when compared to animals.
In the Hindu context. The essence of the Geeta is "Do your (best) karma and leave the rest to God." The Geeta teaches detachment from worldly pleasures/desires/bondings and the Aatmas (spirits) persuit to get away from the cycle of life and death and achieve eternal peace (Moksha). How many of us actually follow these teachings?..... Few.
In this wild chase . The animals are doing their best by helping their young get away from almost certain death........ Thereby doing their "karma".
Many such attempts also fail and the predator gets the better of them. Yet these "lesser animals" take on with the highs and lows of life in (probably) a better manner than we humans (at times) do.

Vikram: Could be. Though with Vista and dial-up, I won't try to watch it again. The horns seemed slender for a bull, but may well be a young and feisty one who doesn't care for lions! But then, with buffalo, as with some others, defense is a herd thing. Cheers.
P.S. Now that I think about it, and remember some of the "details", a cow. Willing to bet you a Taj on it.
