Greed is infatuation, lust, lust, passion for something. According to Buddhism, greed is one of the three poisons that make people fall into suffering. As an ordinary person, by nature everyone has greed, even those who are studying. Greed manifests itself from small to large, from simple things to complex things and much more subtle. It will cause people to have no end and create bad karma, falling into the cycle of birth and death.
Greed has many different meanings and levels. It is not true that a person who does not steal or steal from anyone is not greedy and believes that he is a good person. Just like eating too much (gluttony) is also a bad thing.
It is no coincidence that Catholic legends always tell about the 7 biggest sins of man to deter and limit bad things that will happen. This is the group of sins best known in Christianity for the abuse or excess of human passions, including: Pride, Greed, Lust, Laziness, Envy and Greed Eat.
Gluttony manifests an extreme desire for food and that desire gradually becomes the source of evil. Excessive food cravings can lead to selfishness, which is essentially putting one’s own concerns and interests ahead of the happiness or well-being of others. In many cases, gluttony can even lead to random deaths. The story below is a prime example.

According to the author’s narration, the story begins when the group of guests follows the Mhangeni lions to hunt. This is considered one of the largest and most dangerous lions in Sabi Sand. Beginning in a small group from the north, the Mhangeni swarmed to Londolozi to drive out the rulers of the area, Mapogo, and from there the legend of an invincible predatory army circulated.
The legendary story of the strength of the Mhangeni lions did not come about naturally. Right at the first time watching, they made the guests admire their effectiveness.
When hunting, lions also follow the herd under the main lead of the lioness. Each lioness will have a unique role in the herd. Such a positional distribution helps them hunt larger prey such as wild buffalo, wildebeest or even giraffes.
The most common “secret” of lions is to attack the respiratory system of their prey. The hunt will go faster and more neatly if they bite or tear the prey’s throat. Coordination is very important in case the prey is too large, some lions are responsible for “baiting” the prey while other lions “silently” come and finish.
After defeating a large wild buffalo, the herd dragged it to a desolate place to enjoy. When eating, the lions are also clearly hierarchical. The first delicious and eaten pieces will be saved for the leader and then the other members. However, a young lion did not understand because he was too hungry or because he was quick to rush and frantically eat the belly of the wild buffalo. Because it was so absorbed in the smell of fresh meat that it stuck its head in the belly of its prey. The awkward situation lasted for more than a minute until other members of the herd came to help. Unfortunately, if the situation persisted, the lion would have died of suffocation.
