Leopard Risks Death For Dinner | Planet Earth III | BBC Earth

[@imanairman]

I've never seen a leopard jump from that height to catch prey. Incredible!

Just when you think you've seen it all ..

The things animals do for food is amazing

[@777Omwana]

In Africa the impossible is the possible.

Jaguars are even more insane. They jump at the botton of the river and can drag out cayman from water.

[@thewiseone7343]

When you think you have seen it all, then you get to see this. There is always something new to see in a wildlife documentary.

[@TheKomentor]

Imagine jumping from that height and falling directly onto the deer's horns.

[@jametalboy]

The clarity of the videography, as it's more a cinematic, the leap of leopard , the patience & effort of the team is worth mentioning & as always , well narrated by David Attenborough

[@vka5467]

What is even more astounding is the camera man hiding and capturing these incredible shots.. Salute to the cameraman and BBC as well..

That jump gave me the chills! It's unbelievable that any creature made of flesh and bone could land in one piece from that height! I guess nature is full of surprises...💚🐆

This leopard's determination and skill in the hunt is truly awe-inspiring. 🐆🦌 Nature's raw beauty and the circle of life are on full display in this incredible footage. The leopard's courage and precision highlight the challenges and triumphs of survival in the wild. A reminder of the delicate balance that exists in our natural world. Nature's wonders never cease to amaze us! 🌿👏

[@adorable8229]

And all they do is try to destroy it with their dumb livestocks and worthless ideas and stupid trash they throw in the ocean

[@runitstraight2637]

The leopard is the most remarkable hunter in the animal kingdom . The stuff they can do can't be compared . Seen them flipping in the air killing impala . Jump like huge heights . Pound for pound king in my opinion . The strength to carry food up trees as well !!

[@elss8717]

I just watched it on the BBC. The third programme so far in this series. As always, stunning to watch.

[@brentmason6782]

Wow! It’s always hard watching anything being killed…but that is the epitome of fearless determination! How she doesn’t break her leg or back is beyond belief. And we think we work for our dinner…

[@footfault1941]

Hunting a prey is always accompanied with risk. This is riskier by much! Typical ambush with a big element of secrecy, but a slight miscalculation would become very costly. Landing on a prey would be clumsy, while landing far gives a prey time to flee. Pinpoint accuracy & extreme agility is required. Amazing! Amazing leopard & BBC staff who have spotted this unique, quite unusual mode of prey catching!

[@s33animallover]

This was the best documentary I watched

That was incredible to watch, finally something new! 👏👏👏

[@f.mazz.459]

Cats, big and small, are the coolest animals in the world. Absolutely amazing to jump from that distance. And that's exactly why the leopard and jaguar are my top favorite animals

[@floram9853]

Amazing

[@Thedesertguy75]

The BBC has the best animal documentaries hands down. Sir David is such a legend here.

[@feedback1814]

That was a tremendous bit of hunting strategy! Then, to display such strength and agility by carrying her prey, which probably weighs more than she does, into the tree tops. Amazing

[@floram9853]

Amazing Incredible

[@zetectic7968]

They have to do that or lose the kill to lions or hyenas

[@feedback1814]

Incredible animal. Incredible camera work. Incredible series.

[@terramater]

Big cats are so determined while hunting! But it can be challenging! Our crew got on camera two lions trying to hunt a buffalo. It's exciting to see both lions in action, but also how the buffalo reacts.

[@Righteous1ist]

What a crazy but epic hunt

[@cameronhillyard2976]

This is one of my favourite moments in this series and I was saying how did that leopard survive because when David said leopards have killed themselves jumping from these heights I got very anxious and shocked but I think that she very clever and she knows what she is doing because leopards are intelligent and smart animals and have good eye sight

[@runitstraight2637]

By far the most skilled hunter in the animal kingdom . Crazy what they can do leopards

[@gaz7367]

That's got to be up there with the best scence I've ever watched, incredible.

[@touremuhammad5983]

Fun fact: Jaguars hunt in the same way, but over rivers & streams so they have a somewhat softer landing.

[@Explorer626]

Yup. When I saw that clip of a jaguar diving onto a caiman, I was in shock.

[@redrubytwilightxx8700]

Water is not always a softer landing depending on the height.

[@melloscott1732]

Yes they do

[@baardagaam]

Jaguars don't jump from that height, if there's a stone in the river it would be killed by impact. In the grass savannah it's safer to make such a high jump

[@Nebalallfours]

0:59 monkey also wait for their prey to come to them

[@teeanahera8949]

An unfortunate piece of fruit wandered into the monkey’s lair and was killed with a swift bite to the stem. 🙄

[@ML_0808]

The Leopard timed her jump to perfection....what a clean job...well executed

[@DaveVelo1]

This leopard has learned that to jump from such a height and survive would require he land directly on top of his prey, bite it's throat and use it to break his fall.

[@teeanahera8949]

*its throat, not it is throat, that’s what the apostrophe is for, it is a contraction of ‘it is’.

[@mickwalsh8136]

Wowzers that leopard and sir David equals perfection

[@davidclaudy4822]

Let’s take a minute to appreciate that after the kill, the leopard carried the antelope into the tree to eat. Pretty amazing.

[@matalens48]

Very best documentary

[@me_souljah]

Thats what real "brave and stunning" looks like

[@Ja50nkAt]

There are more Leopards in Africa than Lions because they are so adaptable and prey on a wider variety of animals, but they stay so well hidden it's hard to know just how many there are. Magnificent creatures.

[@Las_puas_del_erizo]

Unas imágenes sorprendentes un uno de los animales más maravillosos del planeta. Gracias por hacer posible estos documentales❤

A literal leap of faith by the leopard.

[@nathancomixproductions466]

How brave she must've been to jump from such heights. She is relentless!

[@dawncarson2279]

That was a crazy jump. Stealth. Though I was sad she got one I was happy she got a meal. Not like she can go to the grocery store and buy whatever she wants. Great footage.

[@theflyer1]

people talk about lions, alright they are cool. But for me, the leopard is more interesting, pound for pound no other big cat comes closer. They are the ninjas of the cat world.

[@jenko5294]

Chipazua! She is well known by the guides in South Luangwa national park, Zambia. We saw her last year with our guide Yoram at Shenton, dragging a baboon into the brush. 50 baboons screeching at her, but brave Chipa didn't care. She is still doing well at age 11, a testament to her hunting prowess!

[@blucat4]

@@kikujirob1ll Yes, although I don't think of that when watching, but if you asked me I would remember. We should do one. Get a BBC clip, mute the sound, and add our own. We could eat potato chips and record that sound, LOL!! 😂 Add voices of the baboons!! 😂
