Despite the mother's bravery act, the video did not go down well with the internet users. Many users asked the social media page to stop sharing such sensitive videos. Many users assumed that the baby giraffe could have already died. Social media users could not bear to watch a young giraffe being mauled by a lioness with her jaws. A user wrote, "I think died anyways. Looks like it collapsed its head when the mom turned around."

Another user wrote, "I know everyone on here is all "that's nature!!!" But, It's a little disheartening that some animals have more tools to fight back than others. Right? We're all just meant to be eaten or to eat? Survival of the fittest. A baby giraffe/elephant/hyena/leopard/turtle, dog, cat, lamb. whatever steps in front of a predator. It's literally the movie with Sigourney Weaver. Let's be really clear on this, everyone who says "this is nature."

The third user commented, "It's a lil sad to watch this."
