Random names like this are hilarious. 😂

[@isaactheworshipwarrior6687]

Yeah, it IS kind of funny how not all of them had the instinct to run away, but that's how it is for animals. Often times as soon as a predator grabs an animal, the others just stand by knowing that they're potentially going to be safe after a successful hunt. Maybe it's their way of mourning or informing other animals that theres no need to run anymore, who knows. But yeah, she makes it out and they're like, "oh, nevermind!"

[@ssj3vegett0]

@@isaactheworshipwarrior6687 it has nothing to do with mourning. basically all animals have some Kind of Head Knowledge maybe up to a Kid in elementary school. they see one predator, and he hasnt gotten one yet. and when he does..then there like well were good for today, The Leopard is gonna be full and satiated. like dodge Ball for Humans, we all run , then when someone is tagged we stop cause that Turn is over. same thing here kina..

Probably, but when you consider the neck wounds and the fact that the cat went for the jugular, the impala would probably have died of blood loss eventually.

NeXT NGL I don't see it that way. The creation of these sound effects is really an art.

Shouldn't that be more incredible to people than if someone just held a microphone to animals? Although the invention of such an amazing mic would be incredible.

Me too. I'm always hoping they catch an old animal that has lived a full and glorious life and give it a quick death. Reality is usually different, though. Half the impala young are killed by predators in their first weeks, and I've seen enough videos of wild dogs, baboons, hyenas and other predators to know it certainly isn't always a quick death.
