From Ngala Private Game Reserve:
"This young male Leopard was moving around some open ground when suddenly he dashed into a thicket, out popped an African Wild Cat, followed closed by this fella with the little cats hard earned meal! Michael Anderson"

From Ngala Private Game Reserve:
"After the Birmingham Pride had moved off their buffalo kill, a male leopard made the most of an opportunity to scavenge. Usually, we tend to associate this type of behavior with spotted hyenas. It just goes to show that an easy meal will never be wasted in the African bush. Scott Yammin"

From Pondoro Game Lodge:
"The Mohlabetsi female feasting on a baboon early in July. Do not often see that. Contrary to popular believe leopards do not catch baboons that often. This is my first time seeing this in 19 years of guiding."

From Singita:
"After an exciting afternoon, we watched as the young male leopard N'weti retrieved a carcass that his mother had stashed in thick bush. The two leopards were interrupted as a large herd of elephants moved through the river course where they were feeding. (Ross Couper, Field Guide @ Singita Sabi Sand)"
