What happened to the leopard?

Edit: nvm I saw that it was tigress st3 from sariska and she killed the leopard. There is another video of her carrying the carcass across the road as well.

Kanwaar also said that was an adult leopard. Must of been a leopardess or a small male.

In Sariska, a leopard becomes a tiger’s prey:
In what can be termed as a rare wildlife incident, a tiger in the Sariska Tiger Reserve in Alwar district of Rajasthan attacked and killed a leopard and carried the carcass in its mouth.

Abhimanyu Singh Rajvi, a wildlife enthusiast, who happened to be on a jungle safari in Sariska, witnessed the whole incident and even managed to capture some images.

The images show the beast carrying a leopard carcass in its mouth in Sariska’s Kala Kuan area.

Rajvi said he saw the big cat (ST-3) climbing a tree to catch its prey. When the leopard fell from the tree, ST-3 jumped on it and killed it within a few minutes.

This Hyena was eating something in the water, must be old meat of an animal that died but we could not see that well, just the red of the meat.  She was still busy trying to eat when suddenly a Lioness appeared from under the waterpipe under the road.  The Lioness walked up to the Hyena who had no idea she was on her way....my heart was beating so fast, I was sure she was going to kill this Hyena.  They gave each other a few looks and growls and then the Hyena moved away and the Lioness went into the water and took some meat and came back with it to the waterpipe under the road.  

My son, Zander (10 years) old took a video of this which I will post for you later.  
You can clearly see both these ladies have years of battle scars and the Hyena had one blind eye and almost no teeth left....Nature not always fair nor easy to survice!

From The Leopard Hills Weblog, Torchwood faces another Hyena, by Hugo Breed.
"Over the last two days Torchwood has been busy feeding on a Warthog kill. We would check up on him regularly, in the hopes to find him where he has hoisted the kill into a tree.

Yesterday afternoon we did the same, but when we got there he was still busy feeding on the ground. After a while just watching him and enjoying the amazing sight of watching a wild animal feed close by, a Hyena appeared on the scene.

The Hyena quickly picked up the scent of the kill and made its way straight towards Torchwood. Torchwood was to slow to react and tried his best to fend off the Hyena. Unfortunately for him the Hyena overpowered him and he lost his hard earned meal."

"Torchwood remained in the area in the hopes of regaining some of the kill, but he was unable to as the Hyena kept everything for itself."

The reaction when a young Tigress came across a full grown Leopard...


On a safari in Kanha Tiger Reserve, India, came true a dream situation. We followed a Tigress for an hour. Later something incredible happened that non of us anticipated. The Tigress bumped into two Leopards on the road. One leopard ran away with fright. The other, a male, sat still on the road. The two big cats stared at each other trying to judge their size. Soon the young tigress decide to avoid a conflict and climbed down the Bamboo valley. Later, the leopards disappeared in the hills.

What a morning it was...

LION & LEOPARD FACE OFF: By Latest Sightings - Kruger.

This is the intense moment caught on film of a bold lion sneaking up on an unsuspecting leopard having a nap.

“By far the rarest sighting in my guiding career!” Matthew told us.


Matthew continued: “On October 04th 2016, we had started our game drive in search of leopard.

After hearing a male leopard had been found we all got excited and headed into the area.

*This image is copyright of its original author

The male leopard started to walk along the banks of the Sand river scent marking all the way.  It was at this moment we noticed the male lion lying in the river on the opposite bank.


I said to my guests 'Can you imagine if these 2 dominant males came together'. It seemed as if my words weren’t cold because shortly after that the male leopard went to sleep and the lion started to stalk him from the other side of the river.”

Matthew stated that he had mixed emotions as this sighting started to unfold.


There was a lot of excitement and nerves building as the male lion started to stalk from across the Sand River.

*This image is copyright of its original author

As the lion got closer to the leopard, Matthew realized that if he caught the leopard, then he would potentially kill it. “At this point I started to warn my guests about what could happen.” But, before they knew it, the lion was right below the sleeping leopard!

Fortunately, the lion didn’t kill the leopard, but the sneaky lion scared the living daylights out of the leopard.




“The lion drove the leopard into a Leadwood tree on the river bank and then had a drink and moved off out of the area”.

Lions and hyenas don't get a long at all. They will do anything in the nature to eliminate the enemy. This alpha female hyena had no chance against these powerful brothers of The Serengeti, who were patrolling their territory.
