"On Thursday,4 August we came across this young Impala with an injured hind leg. There were a few cars and they told us that a leopard was busy stalking the Impala. Although we could not see the leopard at all in the dry grass and bushes we waited and kept our eye fixed on the injured Impala. All of the sudden the leopard strike with lightning speed and took the Impala by total surprise! The leopard then dragged the Impala into a koppie area away from other predators.
There were lots of grass and thorn tree bushes in the way,but I am glad to have these two images to share with you. The leopard is indeed the ultimate stealth hunter!"
