Some tourists in Zambia got the incredible experience of seeing a leopard and a crocodile fighting over an impala up close.
You can see some pretty incredible things while on a safari, ranging from a cape buffalo stampede to a hippo attacking your car to a crocodile eating a warthog in the middle of the road. Well, now you can add seeing a leopard and crocodile fighting over a dead impala to that list.
Both are very impressive predators in their own way, but this fight very clearly favored one animal over the other. Can you guess which one will win before you watch the video?
As you can see, the speed and finesse of a leopard is no match for the brute strength and bite force of the crocodile, even when it was out of the water. Now if that would've been a jaguar and a caiman, it might've been a different story...
In any case, that leopard was very lucky the crocodile didn't want to add the leopard to its dinner plate. Trying to nibble a piece of meat off the impala that close to the crocodile's mouth was a pretty gutsy move!
