That is some sad twisted shit
My favorite part was when the leopard kept carrying the baby high up the tree and letting it fall to the ground off branches. Kitty had a whole day of fun with his fauny friend.
'Cats always go for the neck for a quick death!'
This sub.
Ok this is pretty gnarly. That was a lot of very cute baby animal in distress noises. For 11 minutes.
"Run, fucker!"
Maybe the leopard is torturing the baby impala in order to flood its blood stream even more with adrenaline so it can get a bigger high
What you have here is a young leopard and a young impala. Impala running, trying to get away triggers the leopards predatory instincts. When the impala just stands there leopard is just kinda wondering wtf. There are plenty of videos of young lions, or other young leopards, cheetahs doing the same thing.
That's why if you come face to face with a predator in the wild; bears, lions, wolves, etc. Professionals always state the worst thing you can do is run. As it triggers predatory instinct.
Using it as bait to hopefuilly get an adult meal./
Anyone know how it keeps the impala in place by using what looks like a single claw?
