The master of hide and SNEAK! This ferocious feline was seen stalking an impala after its mother ran off in search of another source of food. The young leopard who'd been left to its own devices was spotted in the long grass in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.
William Steel said, “Anyone who has tried to spot a leopard on safari will know how secretive they are, and subsequently how difficult it is to spot them. They are the masters of surprise and use this tactic when hunting.”
“This leopard used the long grass to stay hidden as it started to hunt Impala, a type of antelope. As its mum went off to hunt he couldn’t resist following and attempting its hunting through the thick grass. Unfortunately, after a few minutes of following him, he moved into the dense tree line and gave us the slip. Disappearing, likely trying to relocate its mother.”
