This is another one of the leopard mom taken in the Timbavati Game Reserve in South Africa. She was focusing on the hyena that had stolen her impala kill earlier. The hyena having gorged on it eventually abandoned the kill without a fight and the leopard took it up in the tree.

C&C welcome and appreciated. Thanks,

P.S. I've also converted this one to b&w which works well but I thought I'd share the color version first, as I prefer it slightly over the b&w.
