I was hesitant to share this photo, and if needed this can be deleted if considered too sensitive.
This is the young male Leopard fondly known as Marieps, at that stage about 2-3 years old. He used to hang around in the same territory as his father, and late last year was taught a lesson which caused him to go in search for him own spot.

Nothing wrong with your picture, it is the circle of life. Nice capture Bertie.

Bertie - captivating image - this is life in the bush at its best! We all want, and need, such images!
His dad must be a Meneer, look at his head and shoulders already!

Looks like the steak at the grocery store, only leaner. Nice capture.

Great shot! Antelope tar-tar… Meat doesn’t always come wrapped in plastic at Food Lion, Kroger, Safeway, et al……

A quick update on this leopard, he was found yesterday 12th April in a real bad condition after being wire snared by locals.
He was darted by the vet, treated, stitched up and they stayed with him throughout the night after feeding him an impala.
Here is a link to the video on the tube:

Yes I agree. I saw another thread that made me think of Tomahawk steaks now this has made me think of it some more.
