Watch this unusual sighting of a confused leopard waiting and watching a baby wildebeest. The weak and lone baby did not stand a chance against this successful hunter who successfully brings down the baby and takes the food back to her 3-month-old cub.

I spotted a leopard in the tree about 500 yards from the road, we followed it and were taking pictures for about 40 minutes. The weak and dehydrated baby wildebeest that possibly lost its mom during the migration chaos walked past the tree, he stopped moving to conserve energy.

“The leopard spotted the baby and climbed down the tree. The leopard crept up behind the baby and watched it for about 5 minutes – it was very confused with both the presence and behaviour of the baby.”

“Inevitably, the leopard brought down the baby wildebeest, chocked it and then dragged it to a nearby bush under an acacia tree where her 3-month-old cub was resting.”
