LeopardKill
Von Ober Jäger am 15. November 2015

We nearly missed this leopard on our early morning game drive. We were watching her for about half an hour when something spooked the herd of Impala on the opposite side of the road. The Impala ran straight into the leopard.

Due to the overwhelming response to this video, here is some more information:

Saturday 29 September 2012 -- We were on a game drive when we spotted a female leopard on the left hand side of the road not five metres from us. On the opposite side was a herd of Impala. The wind was making the Impala very skittish, but they failed to see the leopard.

Something spooked the Impala, we're assuming it was the wind, as they ran towards her, she leapt up at great speed and snatched a young impala mid-air!

The kill was quick and the leopard immediately dragged the impala off into a nearby donga.

The barking impala continued to ring out through the bush.
