Looks youngish and hungry, but still well fed generally... Interesting encounter all the same \O

Lesson learned, BC, hey?! O**

Leopards can be curious but we can also be on the menu in a flash.

Incident with leopard

Post by PennyinSA »

This post was made on a FB page KP-BPOE but nothing further has been said anywhere! I quote:

We can confirm that a leopard did attack a Safari Vehicle this morning near Skukuza.
We will not allow any speculations on the group but will post the full press release as soon as possible.
