There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Kruger Park, South Africa - Leopard hunts and kills baby Warthog.


The Leopard was strolling along when suddenly it noticed the warthogs. 

The Leopard immediately went into attack mode and charged towards them. 

The Mother Warthog still gave a brave attempt to save her piglet, but it was too late.

She later returned and tried again but the Leopard chased her off as seen in the background in the video.

The Leopard then finished off the kill and started feeding on the baby Warthog.

Leopard Hunts and Kill a Steenbok in Kruger National Park.


It was just north of Tshokwane in Kruger National Park on the Skukuza - Satara Camp main road when we spotted a young female leopard that was constantly on the move so we stayed with her for over an hour.
At first she attempted to hunt an Impala, but the Impala saw her and she was forced to abort her plan. Eventually she climbed on a rock where she started to relax until she suddenly saw a steenbok on the opposite side of the riverbank.The video shows what happened next...

Leopard kill in the Kruger National Park.
This female leopard has learnt a trick on catching impala. She waits for them to drink and even though they might be only meters away from her she won't strike until the right moment- when one makes a crucial mistake and slips into the water she bullets out and grabs it before it has time to get out of the water. She has caught 3 impala in 3 days like this.

"Leopard Kill on H1-1 (Napi). He killed a warthog in a culvert and dragged it into the open to go and feed in the thickets 80m away. The strength of these cats are astounding! Amazing!"
