MalaMala Safari Moments: Episode 67.
Watch how the Three Rivers female ambushes an impala out in the open! A surgical strike. She later loses the kill to members of the Kambula pride and hyenas.
...
From MalaMala Game Reserve to wherever you are in the world, we'll bring you moments from our daily safaris in one of Africa's most iconic private game reserves. This is essentially a continuation of our 'Rangers in Isolation' series which was filmed during the national Lockdown.

  • Incredible footage of the leopard ambush, the Three Rivers female is a beautiful girl. Poor Impala didnt stand a chance but leopards kill quickly and cleanly. Sad to see the other Impala looking on. Amazing close up footage of the leopard plucking the Impalas coat. Have never seen it up close like that. Fantastic vid as always guys, stay safe, be well and thank you so much.

  • Wow, what an impressive hunter The Three Rivers female is. She is by far my most favorite living leopard! Watching her as a cub with her mama, the Kikilezi female, and her brother when they were babies, was such an experience. Watching her survive tough circumstances and become a fantastic adult has been one of my greatest pleasures. Cannot wait to see her in action again! Fingers crossed that we can come see her!

    • You seem to know her well. You can tell me how old she is and if she has already had cubs .... And also who is her brother? thank you in advance🤗

    • We saw her as a quite young cub in August 2016 with her mother and brother, so I am guessing she is or is close to 5 years old. When the Kikilezi female was killed, the cubs were a little over a year old (Pieter, correct me if I am wrong on this). The thought was that the male would survive, but the female would not. This savvy little gal learned early on how to survive. Her brother disappeared. She has never had cubs.

  • Beautiful foggy morning landscape. The leopard is quite the huntress. Fantastic watching her technique in the kill, and in removing the fur afterward. Even if she lost the carcass overnight, I'm glad she was able to get a meal. Always fun watching playful lions and hyena.

  • Hey MalaMala, Did the leopard just give us a Master Class on its kill techniques or did the hapless Impala just walk into its death? What polished off the Impala during the night? The lion and hyenas seemed to be milling around the area. Did the leopard gorge itself? Great videography!
