Description
Botswana
We watched this leopard chase the impala into a small wooded area, and take him down. It’s always sad to see something killed, but the privilege of watching natural actions unfold is mesmerizing.
The lepard was keeping a very close eye on the black-backed jackals pacing nearby, hoping for some snacks. The leopard, however, dragged the impala into a tree when he was done, as usual.
I would have preferred a lower angle for some of the shots, but one is prohibited from leaving the safari vehicles, which can be fairly high.
On the other hand, this angle gave a better view of the impala’s eyes and wound, as well as the wet area on it’s neck where the leopard took hold. (Leopards kill by strangulation)
