Safari goers got the shock of their lives when a big cat on the prowl jumped from the bushes and leaped into the air, almost colliding with the safari vehicle.
The vehicle was traveling through Kruger National Park in South Africa with a few tourists when the split-second event occurred. Luckily, one of the tourists caught it all on tape! The safari was following a flock of Guinea fowl on a dirt path. The tourists knew they would encounter many wild animals, including big cats, but never imagined they would encounter one in such an up close and personal way — and during its lunch no less!
Seemingly from out of nowhere, a leopard leaps from the bushes, attempting to catch one the Guinea fowl as it flies away. Watch the leopard extend itself over a remarkable range in order to catch the prey, though it doesn't succeed. But it did succeed in frightening the safari tourists, who let out screams. And luckily, the leopard did not collide with the vehicle on its hunt.
The only person unfazed by the event is the vehicle's driver. We're sure he's had many close encounters with these animals, but his composure is truly extraordinary!
If you were just as stunned as these women were by the leopard's sudden appearance, please SHARE!
