Keep dreaming mate, your precious little doggies would be mince meat if they came across theses males. I guess you and the others didn't COMPREHEND what I meant. Yes the Leopard COULD MAUL an AWD, but it would still run from it. Humble yourself K9Boy, you could learn alot from me. Edited by ImperialDino, Jun 6 2012, 12:06 PM.

He sat motionless for about half an hour carefully weighing up all options and waiting for his moment. In a split second it arrived. He saw the herd moving across the road to the open grasslands where they would safely spend the night. Instantly, he knew that he could now use the long grass on the side of the road to cover a swift approach. It was now or never! His entire body dropped…shoulders high, tail low and ears down, he sprinted along the road. Almost cheetah-like. He covered the 60 meters in mere seconds. The first impala ran across the road, then the second, the third jumped and thud! He hit it with incredible force. We could hear it from the vehicle. Gripping down on the throat of the helpless impala, he claimed yet another victim. A much needed meal for an empty stomach. Many people say that the great Camp Pan is aging and his physical condition is poor; well, let me tell you, that from what I saw that evening, he still has incredible patience, skill, speed and power…all qualities that make up the perfect leopard. All qualities that have contributed towards his success in the years gone by. Edited by 1977marc, Jun 7 2012, 05:36 AM.

Except your talking nonsense again. http://www.digitalwild.co.uk/botswana/480-leopard2006.html And from a female leopard. We noticed her become fully alert and then move off very purposefully ... she entered a small clearing just ahead of us where we saw a lone wild dog had brought down a large impala buck. A single wild dog will not take on a leopard and it ran. Tortillis immediately pounced on the hapless impala and proceeded to throttle it. The wild dog had started to disembowel the impala, which was already in a state of deep shock by the time Tortillis got to it.

Why did you feel the need to try and downplay the leopard in a thread about them? On every single thread about leopards theres ALWAYS that one comment from you trying to make them out as wimps. And the only thing i've learnt from you so far is that your a complete prat.

Omnivore Posts: 1,350 Group: Members Member #8 Joined: Jan 7, 2012	Camp Pan male with a Wildebeest kill : The Camp Pan Male stands guard over his wildebeest kill. He dragged the carcass to a nearby tree and began feeding. It was too heavy for him to hoist in any tree nearby, but in any case would have certainly attracted the lions. Once the day warmed and the other predators presumably not lurking, he decided to take it across a clearing, far from the lions and into a thicket. A wildebeest kill is very impressive for a leopard, and he seemed determined to keep it until it was finished! He dragged it about 150m, stopping frequently to catch his breath. The power involved in dragging such heavy weights is unique to the leopard. Despite his already full belly, he managed to take the carcass to safety and feed on it for the next day. http://blog.londolozi.com/2012/06/the-week-in-pictures-45/ Edited by Canidae, Jun 24 2012, 09:26 PM.
