Leopard Teaches Cubs How to Cross the Road
There is no need to go to Oklahoma to see cute cubs, GO TO AFRICA INSTEAD! There, you will watch these magnificent big cats how they should be viewed - in the wild. This video is in honor of all the animals that are locked up in cages when they should be in the wild.
BOOK YOUR TRIP TO KRUGER: bit.ly/BookatKruger
Watch the unbelievably cute moment filmed on camera when a leopard mother is seen helping her cute newborn Leopard cubs cross the road in the Kruger National Park. The heart-warming cuteness of these little ones is almost unbearable and all we can do is watch. When you get the opportunity to capture it on film, it makes the sighting even more special.
64 Year old, Thinus Delport, had the opportunity to see this incredible sighting of a mother leopard and her two very tiny cubs crossing a road 6km from Lower Sabie towards Crocodile Bridge. Thinus tells LatestSightings.com of the excitement to have been able to witness such a rare sighting.
“Early morning, my daughters and I left the camp looking for leopards. They were convinced that there are no leopards in the Kruger, as neither of them had ever seen one. As we drove, I jokingly convinced them to start singing in the car, to draw the leopards out, and so they did - and to my surprise - it actually worked!”
“We hit a traffic jam where a few cars were stationary. It seemed like visitors were looking at a pride of lions. My daughter noticed that in the thicket behind our vehicle, there was a mother leopard trying to move her cubs!!”
“It was my daughter’s first visit to the Kruger and she was the first to whip out her video camera. I’m glad she did because I would have been shaking so much from excitement, that the footage might have just been ruined. We stayed and watched as the mother crossed the road first to make sure that all was safe, before returning to encourage her cubs to cross to safety.”
“This was an extremely rare sighting, and you don’t often get to see a leopard mother relocate her cubs when they are still so young. We’ve been visiting the Kruger for over 50 years, and not once have we seen something like this. This just came to show that patience really does pay off.”

Imagine being a parent with two infants and you're trying to cross a bizarre path that is surrounded by alien spaceships. That's kinda how I think that leopard feels
That is literally what’s happening
True who knows how they see us and the live itself maybe we r realy the only mad animal gon out of control i do see it that way
Stop anthropromorphizing.
@@davidandrew6347 no
@@a199719971997 I said yes
She was so alert, looking around for danger.
The stupid cars were making too much noise
It's interesting that she didn't notice so many humans around. Or was she sure that they wouldn't hurt her?
@@alexa.davronov1537 The safari industry is so prevalent in S Africa that most predators are accustomed to vehicles; they see them as innocuous. I think Momma leopard was being alert for other predators like lions and hyenas.
Because she is a mother
@@alexa.davronov1537 am sure she was more focused on other predators eg 🦁. Which have a tendency to sleep on the road
Its so cool how at the 1:59 mark the mother does a very quiet, almost silent vocalisation and immediately one of the cubs turns around and walks towards her
Mother instinct i think
She said, GYMFAOHRN! Black parent speak. Lol
That was a infrasound, various animals makes this type of sounds, like Felids, Elephants and Dinosaurs(Birds included).
Eu Também escutei!😊
Maybe its their language we cannot hear or understand
1:31 - " stop momma! I think I should frightened these humans before leaving.. " "Arrrr arrrr arrr" 🥰
lol sounds like a cry baby to me
Those cubs are 4 weeks old, no more. Absolutely adorable.
Why didn't they euthanize these dangerous animals?

Mom’s like “Ok, this is embarrassing” 😂💕

I loved how intense she was. Looking around for any danger, prepared to rip apart any threat. Absolutely amazing creature.
Yeah, until a lion comes by and she disappears

The tourists filming were sobbing off the overdose of cuteness.
She is having ecstasy.
or fricken wonder. i have never been so jealous in my entire life. i've been to kruger more times than what i can count or remember and i have NEVER even SEEN a leopard. i started crying just watching this video T^T
these tigers will do well until they don't harm holy cows, if they did that, it will be genocide for them
@@hassaniqbal7934 What tigers?
Their ovaries were about to explode.
How amazing is that mother. She scouted first for safety before they moved
yessssssssssss. wonderfull.
Fantastic
She scouted but don't care at all about those cars. Lol
@@mrtraa2639 the mother would've killed them
@@mrtraa2639 bruh
The way that the cubs walk is so funny and adorable, Masha’Allah!
Those cubs should attend road safety lessons regularly.
0:41 lmfao when she looks back and none of the children is following behind 😂
If you look at the shadows of the cars it was around mid-day so the tarmac would be pretty hot. I think that is what made the cubs stop and start complaining.
moonlight, yess! so funny
It's make sure safety at there
@@chrismawata8755 Yes that’s what I was thinking. Life experience had not yet taught that little fluffball that standing still only makes it hotter. Mum was onto it though - great job.
This is one HEALTHY momma! Shes one of the largest females I’ve seen in the wild... means she will be a great provider for these cubs.... they are in good paws! Beautiful.
@Toki Warheart naah she is either bigger or had a mega sized lunch

The way these cubs are walking is an absolute delight 😊
Delightful to see anand chatterjees hindu mom walking to my bed ....
Those cute little cubs need attend road safety lesson with their Mama.
the cubs are so cute, especially the one that first didn't want to cross the road!so cute! also can we just appreciate the beauty of the mother?
I was doing safari for four years. But never had a sighting like this. Incredible.
south africans are the most beautiful people in the world apart from those safaris where they kill the lions for money, segregated communions, wiping out the rhinos, really great bunch... good caring people, the dutch are known for it's good human nature
There were many people spotting leopards .... only if they could post comments.
I wish i could go to this safari , see with my own eyes the wild life there , thats my dream but sadly i couldnt afford it. Instead, i can only afford to watch them thru youtube. 😭😭
So you were basically encroaching on their territory just for YOUR entertainment. Leave them alone.
@@joddeurter2448 you live in a dream world..wake up bro..
The baby had to stop in the road and yell..... *Get these damn cars off of my property!*
Kiki A 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
bem isso mesmo
good one, the second cub was the one who was protesting the most against the invasion by unwelcome guests!
Lol 😂
LOL
There's always that one cub who gets confuse or stubborn that have mommas working hard. I saw the video of a mother black bear crossing the road with her 4 cubs. I can relate. 🤣😊🤗
Their sight takes some time to fully develop. It's possible those cubs, even just that one, doesn't have fully developed sight yet and relies on the scent and calls of its mother and sibling to follow. The vehicles may have just confused it for a moment. Notice how it was going in the right direction with them (its good instincts to crawl low in an open area caused it to be slower) but when the mom and other cub created too much of a gap was when it froze and turned around, probably checking to see they were the other direction since it (possibly) couldn't see them anymore? It looked like it was going to head in the wrong direction but when the other cub came back and sat next to it he/she stayed still, feeling comfortable it was in the right spot, or at least not alone. Then mom came and turned them around and they were on their way again.
2.00 mum makes gestures to her little cuties like “this way kids” and they finally follow her.
Theres Nothing on Earth more precious than a Mother and caring for her Babies! Touches my Heart Every time I see It
Yup, till the cub becomes mature enough to take care of itself she is so precious...
I wouldn't mind waiting in my car all day long, waiting for them to cross the road..They're worth it.!
Me too

At the end - the little cubs trying to run fast was sooooo cute! Absolutely adorable! Tourists are like "awww!" "Ahhhh!" Locals probably - " oh it's a leopard with her cubs!"

Mom looks like she saying to them, "Come on, can't you see these people in those cars eyeballing us"😁😁
I choose the leopard for 15 reasons why is my favorite big cat: 1. Great climbers. 2. Power in their shoulders and legs. 3. Versatile. 4. Smart and cunning. 5. Amazing amubush hunters. 6. Hunting a variaty of prey animals, up to 90 species (from frogs to zebras). 7. There are beautiful and gorgeous regarding their spotted coat. 8. Secretive. 9. Formidable fighters and powerful big cats no doubt. 10. Good parents. 11. Ability to live near human settlements something that other big cats couldnt do it. 12. Using trees as advantage points to set up traps by hunting their prey from above. 13. Had amazing senses of smell hearing and sight. 14. Had great weapons of defense & attack: sharp claws/lethal jaws/dagger like canines that are SAVAGE! 15. And above all they are the ghosts of the big cats who can navigate through the dark. In other words, they are the jack of all traits!
What about Jaguar?
That's a beautiful mama leopard and those lovely little cubs are adorable😍
I agree
@@Latestsightings Amazing sight! Thanks for your video!
Mama leopard and the cubs are both beautiful.
@@dawnelizabeth1828 Both gorgeous.
@@goldenstatewarriors623 They sure are, I'm on rewind.
Mother leopards are the true and pure definition of great devotion and nice parental care to their cubs at best more than any other big cat.
Just because this video is about a mother leopard showing great parental care to her cubs, doesn't necessarily mean it is the only big cat who can do these things as a parent.
The tension,care and alertness in Mother Leopard. The most beautiful animal in the world. It is worth waiting for entire day to watch these cuties
Люблю котят малышей. И мама , и детёныши красивые.
Какая КРАСОТА! Заботливая МАМА! ТОЛЬКО рядом с ней ХОРОШО и БЕЗОПАСНО! УДАЧИ ВАМ, "БРАТЬЯ НАШИ меньшие"!

What magnificently beautiful beings. Those cubs on the road were a one in million opportunity to witness.
The mum is so majestic
That leopard is a wonderful mom. 🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 Leopards maybe misunderstood and fearsome predators but they are wonderful mothers.
Single mothers 👏
@@VeganO_MexicanO yup 😉
I dont think they are misunderstood, they are carnivores so they kill to eat. They never kill without a reason
Amazing mother is looking left and right. Animals are so smart.
Cuteness overload 🥰
1:05 she’s like “I have my eyes on you all - don’t try anything funny!”
You can tell the momma was stressing a little. She didn't trust anyone in those strange vehicles.
She is an awesome Mommy. Thanks Philadelphia USA
How cute, the little pidder padders of the cubs!
Love how she goes out first time. Realizes babys are not coming. She walks back and sits like she is allowing the cars to pass.
This is the beauty of nature ❤️
Какая красота! Неужели ещё остались леопарды?! Детёныши ещё совсем маленькие, пугливые. Здоровья им и удачи!
How much sensitive and careful she was of her babies !
the cubs were scared of the cars - give these animals some space damn it.
not really, more like they felt exposed crossing the road
@@DonDSelectah So we should ban all roads because of leopards?
@@alexdan4578 why not ban stupid idiots too?
Maybe they should move somewhere away from roads
I agree. 💔

When I watch the video from the beginning I heard the roar of one of her Kittens 🐱. It sounded so cute,🥰☺️ just like a house cat.

Unlimited love ..mother love.. Love never stop.. Between mother and her children until last breath.. Without love no meaning our life.. Love like rainbow...Coloured and soft.. Like this family of beautiful lion....
incredibly beautiful.
One thing I learnt from this. All cats are the same. Dear minor differences but one foundation. I see this a lot with domestic cats. Beautiful indeed is nature

Excellent mom, very carefully looking for lions, hyenas gosh the cubs in the open are very vulnerable. Great job mom.

I have watched this video 60 to 70 times but never got bored 😍
1:01 I love how the legs goes down so smoothly, almost like it wasn't connected with her body!
Uusjsss
1:36 Cub: "Hey mum, how's my leopard crawl ?"
😁😂🤣
LOL
Mom: it's not time for this
She got majestic eyes
Leopard's spots and Tigers stripes.... Nature's best work of art.
So so so adorable and cute and precious!❤💕💝💕❤🥰😍🥰😍😘
Is there a law that cars must cut their engines, when animals are crossing the road with their cubs? How was the mother supposed to lookout for predator or even listen for them when the engines are running. That being said...fantastic video beautiful animals.
You're really not supposed to, although we do sometimes. It's safer to leave the engine running.
I'd rather keep my engines on in a place where I could get attacked by an angry animal at any moment.
A predator isn't likely to take a prey item around something unidentifiable and loud like a car. The act of preying itself is risky and a predator isn't going to expose itself to a full grown mama leopard without being comfortable about the surroundings.
Also be quiet …… the people who took the video are too nosey
To be fair, a large ass car making a ton of noise probably would make most predators afraid to attack. Not to mention the only predators that can threaten a Leopard would be a Lion and maybe Hyenas
The most majestic, most Spiritual of all Cats. The Leopard.
I have watched this dozens of times, and it's the most adorable thing I have ever seen. I really enjoy when the mother looks back and there's no cubs. Her expression saids it all what " where are my babies?" Like a good mother they start to walk across with mom, and she looking back every step of the way. Then like an child opps decides I like it better over there. Finally she and her babies cross the road.
Truly amazing! It's rare enough to see a leopard, but to see leopard cubs is downright incredible. So envious of those people on that road. Guess they were in the right place at the right time. Thanks for sharing.
The sheer excitement of the lady in video says it all. Momma Leapord is definitely nervous.She really needs to get them cubbies moving along. Too much open space. There is nothing more precious than little purrbabies. Tysm for sharing my friend 🐾😎🐾
IN MY VIEW The leopard is a good mother patiently going through the whole process of finally getting her two babies across the street.
First things first She looks for safety before crossing the road.
Camerawoman : **hold her scream for cuteness overload**
I got chills watching that. What an absolutely incredible moment caught by some lucky ladies (one who sounds like me when I squeal for joy lol). Thank you so much for taking and sharing this video. It really lifted my mood. That mother was so majestic and the babies so ugghhhfhh😍
She is absolutely beautiful. And her cubs are cute and very very young. I am surprised that they,d be on the move at such a young age
Good job mama leopard! The way you stare at camera is beautiful!
Why does the second cub have such a low clearance? - It must be in a sport mode.
I think the cub was so scared 😱
panic mode, new feeling under their paws, I see it in domestic kittens when they encounter different flooring than their nest of blankets

Mama leopard has the most beautiful face I've ever see on a wild leopard. She's a good mama, too.
It's so interesting and heartwarming to see how much postitive emotion animals frequently evoke in people ! Unfortunately humans harm animals in many ways but most of us do love and respect these creatures and there is often a deep emotional connection that is really strong ...even with dangerous animals we see the beauty and also the tenderness in them and admire their powers :)
Why is no one pointing out that cute little legs of those cubs and the way they look while running with those feet lol

Absolutely adorable.
Спасибо за доброе, трогательное видео! Радостно видеть заботу мамы о своих детенышах! Как хочется, чтобы в мире царила любовь и доброта, и не было боли и страданий. Бог обещает, что скоро такое время наступит и тогда: "Волк будет в мире с ягнёнком, Леопард будет лежать рядом с козлёнком. Телёнок, лев и откормленный бык будут вместе, и их будет водить маленький мальчик...Младенец будет играть над норой кобры, и ребёнок протянет руку к норе ядовитой змеи. Никто не будет причинять другим зла и вреда на моей земле,"- говорит Бог. (Исаия 11: 6-9). Люди и животные будут жить в мире друг с другом! А вы хотели бы жить в таких мирных условиях?
Красиво сказано ❤❤❤
Есть в мире один карлик который не хочет никакого мира, ему видимо нравится убивать и смотреть на то как люди страдают. Но мы знаем, что Божье долготерпение однажды закончится и этот злодей получит по заслугам!
There is nothing more amazing to see how gravitation pull bellies & shorties try to defy it with tiny steps; true for all fluffy toddlers of everyone.
A mom will always be a mom❤❤❤beautiful babies
