This once-in-a-lifetime video was filmed by Canadian lawyer Scott Hyman (54) - @scotthymanphoto on Instagram in Ruaha National Park.
In one image, a 160-pound leopard can be seen up a tree carrying a visibly frightened three-week-old lion cub in its mouth.
Hyman used a Fuji XT-3 camera to click these amazing pictures from 10-15 meters away.
Scott tells the story: "During my safari, I came across a male adult leopard on the road and started following it for well over an hour as it meandered until it suddenly stopped," said Hyman.
"The leopard suddenly leaped into the dense brush and seconds later sprang out with a lion cub in its maw.
"It sprinted down the road, cub squirming, and up a nearby tree around the bend by the side of the road.
"It held the lion cub firmly in its jaws, and bit into the cub’s skull, ending the cub’s life, and proceeded to devour it piece by piece, headfirst, gradually working its way down the carcass.
"The leopard dropped one of the tiny legs as it ate, but continued devouring the lion cub, bones and all."
Leopards are opportunistic feeders, they eat a variety of animals and usually hunt on the ground or in trees.
They are climbers, leopards spend most of the daytime hours resting under sheltered rocks or in shady places among tree branches.
"At first I was shocked by what I saw, but quickly accepted it as part of nature," says Hyman.
"While my heart broke for the cub, I was excited and thrilled to have witnessed such a rare event, a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife viewing."

There’s just something about seeing big cats die that makes it really sad. However if the lions get that chance they can and will do the same thing to a leopard cub or an adult leopard and leave the Cubs defenseless. The leopard did what was strategically necessary for its own survival.

[@marcusmartinez7855]

Hey John - totally agree. If given the chance, lions do the same and worse! Sometimes, lions kill the adults, the young and leave the remains there for the flyers / maggots to eat. At least the leopard ate part of the kill so, the death of the cub was not a total waste; some of it was for food. VERY different for lions that kill and leave the remains indiscriminately.

Lions have nearly an impossible time trying to kill fully grown healthy leopards (unlike how easily they kill adult hyenas; leopards just have too many survival methods & weapons), so lions will kill a leopard cub in a second, even if they (often) don't eat it. But this happens all the time with lion cubs; just not on camera; lion cubs (like other species) have a low survival rate. Lion cubs get killed (if found) by pythons, hyenas, male lion takeovers, leopards, wild dogs, as other predators alike. It's good to catch it on film. And leopards, (unlike lions), don't let fresh meat go to waste. Leopards eat virtually anything fresh. The only exception is, maybe other leopards. Although I have seen a mother leopard eat her cub that was killed by a python. Lions are more finicky; for instance, they are not partial to hyena meat & other cat predator meat (of cats they kill). But lions seem to be willing to scavenge on meat that is less fresh, than what leopards are will to tolerate; leopards, from my observation, seems to have shorter expiration date for the freshness of its food. Conversely, I hypothesize that hyenas don't have taste buds at all, as they seem to eat carcasses regardless of taste and lack of freshness.

I remember in an old documentary a leopard also carried a wild dog into a tree and ate it while its pack cried on the ground

[@user-fi9dk3gt6d]

No lions don't find it almost impossible to kill leopards, lions can kill them in seconds if they really wanted to, male lions in particular go straight in and will go for the throat even while being bitten and clawed, a hyena is far harder to kill than a leopard.

@Animal fights a male lion doesn't fear any injuries. It goes right in and finishes the job

@@user-fi9dk3gt6d There’s absolutely ZERO evidence of everything you just wrote, and AMPLE evidence to the contrary. Why do people like you HATE data based opinions & conclusions? At some point your disdain for quantitative literacy is disgusting and disturbing. I enthusiastically welcome disagreement, but the kind that is based on high standards, such as not just reputable credible but also testable verifiable. Your readily reliance on the absence of facts, makes it so where you can’t even have opposing discourse with folks like you. A male Lion could literally get not just “bitten and clawed”, they could get any part of their anatomy split open. I can send you the undeniable evidence if you like.
