The pain of losing a child caused the leopard to defeat the African eagle in one fell swoop

 

In the air, they are apex predators, at the top of the food chain and with almost no natural enemies. However, when walking on the ground, raptors will face unpredictable dangers.


The leopard is one of the planet’s top combat predators. Although its size and strength are difficult to compare with lions, its speed cannot match that of cheetahs or it cannot compete with the overwhelming strength of hyenas and wild dogs, leopards are the ones with the best ability to survive. Africa’s finest.

The balance between size, strength and flexibility of movement allows leopards to hunt effectively. However, the outstanding point lies in this species’ rich diet. Leopards can eat any animal from the size of a beetle or larger. Having to hunt many different prey requires them to find diverse hunting strategies.

In the video, the leopard spots an unwary eagle standing proudly in its territory. After carefully observing its prey, the leopard slowly approached, avoiding alerting the opponent. When the opportunity came, the leopard rushed forward, jumped and caught the bird.

It seemed that the eagle would have to stay in the leopard’s belly when the winner suddenly left, leaving the dying bird on the ground. Maybe the leopard is not really hungry but just wants to show off its strength to the intruder.
