Big cats — the most masterful hunters.
Photographer Peter Thompson filmed in the National reserve of Masai Mara to the incredible footage of a flying hunt of the leopard on the warthog.
Hunts. The warthog does not see a leopard, and does not know, he left to live a few seconds.
Started. By the way, this is a female leopard, and pregnant.
Resembles a warthog boar with a somewhat flattened, very large head.
Adult females of a warthog can weigh up to 70 kg, males up to 100 lbs. Although this young again. They have curved fangs that they can cause problems to any predator.
From the leopard not to run away. The warthog has no options, he has to attack, hoping to get lucky.
Strikes again.
And then the leopard soared into the air. It seemed that the predator flies over the helpless warthog.
The photographer managed to capture the unique moment from multiple angles. Flying leopard with widely spaced legs. The pig in shock.
It seems that it is an artistic statement, not real footage.
All. Virtuoso hunt the big cats is over.
