Travis Carreira, an IT Consultant, during a trip to Marloth Park which borders the Kruger National Park, captured this once-in-a-lifetime sighting. Travis shared his footage and story with LatestSightings.com.
“Maureen and Piet, a couple of my friends, spotted a leopard from within the fence of Marloth Park, on the other side of the Crocodile River. As the day progressed, the temperatures peaked at around 41 degrees Celsius. Maureen and Piet sat through it, watching the leopard attempt hunt after hunt, with no success. As soon as I finished my workday, I left straight to where they had seen the leopard last in hopes of spotting it too.”
“I was watching the beautiful sunset on the river when a gentleman came up to me and asked if I could see anything. I explained to him that there had been a leopard hanging around all day, but I couldn't see it. He then pointed and said, there! There's the leopard! We jumped up and ran closer to the fence to get a visual.”
“When running to the fence, I lost sight of it again but caught a glimpse of a hyena who moved into a gully. Then I noticed a small herd of impala, and they were moving in the direction of the hyena. I knew something was about to happen, so I started to film them. As Murphy’s law would have it, I readjusted to get more comfortable, and the next thing, the leopard jumped up and caught one of the impalas!”
“Shortly after that, the hyena tried to catch one of the other impalas but failed. A little disheartened, the hyena turned its attention to the leopard. Seeing that the leopard was successful, it thought that it would be easier to steal a meal rather than to try hunting again. The hyena moved in quickly and stole the impala right from the leopard’s mouth. The impala was still alive at this point, and the hyena began dragging it up the hill to a safe spot to eat it. The hyena had a firm grip on the impala, even though it was still kicking there was no way it could break free.”
"Then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed more movement. Two massive crocodiles, likely attracted by the commotion, emerged from the river, complicating the situation. The larger crocodile went straight for the impala that was still kicking in the hyena’s jaws. Once the crocodile got a hold of the impala and crushed it with its powerful jaws that was the end of the impala’s life.”
“The leopard who made the initial kill was very hesitant of both the hyena and the crocodiles, so it made one or two half-hearted attempts at getting its food back but was not successful. All this commotion and noise attracted another hyena. This one was bigger and seemed to be more confident. It instantly went to the crocodiles and bit onto the impala, trying to steal it from them.”
“The 1st hyena now also confident with its buddy around, joined in the tug of war. The two hyenas tried using tactics to steal the meal again, but this time, they were left with just some scraps of meat, and the majority was taken by the crocodile.
There were a few other people at the sighting with me. At times, it felt like we were spectators in an arena. The excitement couldn't be contained as we witnessed this once-in-a-lifetime sighting.”

Those crocodiles showed up with such swagger
The impala wasn't even in the fight, she was the prize.
More like she can’t
I was expecting a rocky simulation
Yeah. Poor title of the video. But interesting for sure
@@thebeas8479 yes
*"One very bold Crocodile"* , went way out of the safety of the water to get a meal.
( Then again, maybe not so bold since the crocodile had a "wingman")
These videos make me appreciate just how good my days really are.
You ain't neva lied 😂😂
Not for long human life is temporary you might be like that impala after you leave your human form 😂
😂😂😂
Indeed! I sometimes wonder if humans wouldn't appreciate life more if we hadn't eliminated so many of our predators, we don't have anything powerful to remind us to be grateful
How? They're fucking animals
Africa is a constant battle royal.
It must be like hell for prey animals
These clips are mostly filmed in the savanna, this isn’t all around Africa they are filming here bud lol
@@MissDookiee obviously
Just like the whole world used to be
It's Impala vs Everyone
2024, and it still sucks to be an Impala.
Will continue even if you are in 3024.
Unless it's a 64 , 427
Right? Poor thing. Why can't these animals shop at WholeFoods like the rest of us. Chh.
You don't go to hell instead you are reborn as Impala
Ha!
😂😂
😂😂
No wonder there’s so many impalas
Very underrated comment, deserves more likes
It's like when a bunch of rival gangs all try to get the same guy.
Yeah only these animals are probably smarter
Would hate to be that guy in this situation.
@@johnmorton319L😂L
But the Nile crocodile is the king of Africa ❤😂
Once in a lifetime sighting! Those crocodile are huge!
It wasn't huge
Everyone moved back as soon as the crocodile entered 😂😂
The first hyena was a subadult. You can recognize that on his light color fur and small size. The second hyena was an adult and took on the crocodile 1v1. The subadult hyena chased the leopard off
The Leopard would have fought with crocodile
@@shumbashava247 and lost
@@Dutti215the crocodile wasen't even big still took the carcass
@@shumbashava247no it wouldn't
When you're having a bad day, think about this impala and you will feel much better.
Now I feel, how lucky I am
That Impala has a most unusual battle strategy.
On any other channel, i would have thought that the title was clickbait , but here , that’s just not a thing
Yeah and I love it ❤️ I hate clickbait channel
This channel does click bait
In a way, though, the title is in fact clickbait, since the impala doesn't "battle" any of the other creatures.
This might be the top footage for the 2024 recap.
The crocs: iight stop playin don't make me walk that far
Impalas are living snacks for the predators
I mean they evolved to be very good runners for a _reason..._
God: Impalas you were created to feed all of the other animals in Africa.
I mean right? No way dude is real and up there just letting this slide 😂
@@ChudsicI had this conversation with my mom yesterday, well it was mostly me talking while she didn’t listen lol but I keep thinking if god is real maybe he lets animals be eaten and stuff so often because they come back.. like if u think about it once u meet one dog u met them all sorta kinda lol.. n in Christianity it is said animals don’t even go to heaven because they don’t have a soul, so if they have no soul n don’t go to heaven, maybe they come back 🤷🏽, like in that movie A Dog's Purpose, it sounds crazy but maybe it’s true, because since animals can’t talk how would we know when they can’t tell us.
@@MissDookieeinteresting observation
@MissDooklee maybe with time and prayerfully seeking the truth the God of Heaven will enlighten your mind and give you his abundant Grace through the person of Jesus Christ. He wants u to spend eternity with him because the reality is that you do have a soul which will exist for forever. However, we have to decide where our @oul spends eternity: in Heavenly bliss or in Eternal damnation...Hell, the Lake of Eternal flames. Make that decision Today. " For WHOSOEVER shall call upon the name the Lord Jesus Christ will be Saved." Believe that Jesus was God, is God and will always Be God. And that God took on human flesh lived as a man to experience all of our weaknesses yet he did Not Sin. He was the perfect sacrificial Lamb who would die for all humanity and who's blood was to pay the Ransom held against humanity that bounded us to Satan, the Devil for damnation with him. But God loves us so very much that he sent his Son to die in our place so when we truly believe in his Son with our whole heart we will Not perish in Eternal hell - separation from God forever. Instead, we'll have Eternal Life.
Which god?
It was like watching a game of rock, paper, scissors. 😂 one beats the other
The leopard doesn't beat any of them
The first hyena was a subadult. You can recognize that on his light color fur and small size. The second hyena was an adult and took on the crocodile 1v1. The subadult hyena chased the leopard off
@@Dutti215 More like tug of war between a Spotted Hyena and Nile Crocodile.
@@hasansherif5441 the leopard definitely could of snagged the meal from the crocodile and booked it up a tree. But the hyena chased it off
@@hasansherif5441 true
Impala: the attraction of all creatures
Never seen a hyena mess around with a croc before. This is something else !!
See the video “hyena clan chase off a massive Nile crocodile“. Hyenas attack and chase of the biggest Nile crocodile if it’s about food
See the video “hyena attacks crocodile in the battle of the strongest jaws “
@@Dutti215 why don't you just post the link?
@@TheBlueberryboy cause its not allowed to post links. Not possible. You have the video titles. Just put it in YT and the video will appear
@@Dutti215tigers and lions kill nile crocs and mugger crocs
Which makes them more scarier
Grizzly Bear slams all though except saltie croc,hippo,rhino and ofc Elephant
shows how effective crocodiles can be in scavenging from other predators beyond their natural domain of the water's edge.
I love the hyena's reaction at 0:55 when he first notices the crocodile.
I'll fix the title. Hyena steals Impala from leopard and Croc steals Impala from Hyena👍🏻
I voted crocodile earlier. They rarely take an L
Hyenas got a big part of the impala. How the crocodiles won?
The first hyena was a subadult. You can recognize that on his light color fur and small size. The second hyena was an adult and took on the crocodile 1v1. The subadult hyena chased the leopard off
@@Dutti215 Here is Dutti...
The Most funny Hyena fan...
@@jobnacorconcepcionabad6037
Hyenas kill adult lions and prey on them. There’s “hyenas fight and kill 3 lions“ video and “hyenas eat lioness alive“ video and “hyenas kill a lioness called moja and her cubs“ video. Cope lion fanboy lmao
@jobnacorconcepcionabad6037 Yeah so take that crocodile fan boy.😂
never seen crocs cover that much land for a meal
Lmaooo when three different predators want some of the same action. It’s a never ending story!😭😭 poor impala
3:53 I never would’ve imagined someone saying grand theft auto to 2 crocodiles 2 hyenas and a leopard fighting for food in the middle of Africa-
More like Far Cry
The hyena was literally like “fuck that, I’m gettin’ my share!”
A true definition of a hustler.
Me encantan estos videos.
I love these videos, i wish they were daily. But I understand how difficult it can be to capture these epic showdowns in the wild.
The way the crocodiles showed up 😅 Like mafias
🎵 The leopard takes the impala the hyena comes and steals it. HI HO THE DERRY OH, the Crocs takes it all!!! 🎵 😂😂😂❤
The crocodile took a part of it not all. The hyena took a big part of it
What is certain from this video is that the power relationship among carnivores is Nile crocodile > spotted hyena > leopard...
Leopards are the second most vulnerable large carnivores in Africa after cheetahs...
Leopards are not vulnerable in the least just because they lose a meal or two. They have one big advantage over all their competitors except for a few brave lions. They can climb trees very well and hoist their prey up into trees where they eat in peace.
better to lose a meal than to risk injury. live to hunt another day
@@dannyvalentino328 And the whole reason they bring it up to trees in the first place is so it doesn't get grabbed by something else on the ground, way to miss the point entirely. Even brown hyenas can reliably solo them off kills.
Them's the breaks for solitary hunters for which any serious injury equals starvation.
Leopards are the most adaptable of predators, not only in Africa but in Asia, too. Their diet varies and they comflouge well. The elevated areas give the advantage as well.
@@lebo3793 This is true but also entirely beside the point.
That's a spectacular sight! One in a million.
That crocodile travelled far out of the water to get involved. The second crocodile stayed back because it would have started a fight between them.
Imagine one minute you are just casually grazing in the savanna minding your own business and in an instant you are getting ripped in half by a hyena and a crocodile. Surprised any animal on the menu in Africa ever reaches old age.
Hyenas jaws are really sharp meats and bones🪚, they waste no time to devour and gulp quickly what a lion can eat in hours, they always amaze me!
Yeap. That impala could have protected its genitals and stomach from the hyena at all cost
That leopard has got to be pissed! He seemed to stay around he was so shook by what just happened
Life is rough when you are at the beginning of the food chain...
impala: it ain't easy being me. will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free
That Impala makes Ricky Bobby's "bad" day seem pleasant.
Leopard, Hyenas, and Crocodiles fight over Impala
Fixed the title for you...
That's one bold hyena
I doubt we'll ever get this level of attention before we die. Leopard, hyenas, crocodiles and watched by 1000s of people.
The Impala would probably pass on the way it got attention!
Thousands getting off on watching an animal die more like
Maybe that impala was attention seeker in past life lmao
Yea, just don’t get the attention of thousands of Covid…HIV and AIDS virus. 😂
Who voted in our poll earlier and who got it right? Who got it wrong??
Feel bad for the leopard 🐆😢. He is the real owner of the food 😢
Hahahah human moment
Hyena: rips and devours you alive
Croc: death rolls your guts out and swallows you whole
Leopard: Quick, Merciful death
Incredible footage! This is a great channel 😊
Not gonna lie when I glanced at the thumbnail, I thought the two crocs were people dressed in costumes. 😂😂
More like “Leopard, crocodiles and hyenas battle over impala.”
Yes....title is misleading....
1:25 little birdie in the bottom left corner wanted in on the action, too
The hyenas: Yoo get the other leg dude! Naww broo that's all you😂
I love the rangers commentary ! "You see this one hes bored, he hasnt eaten yet"
The crocodiles walking in like Vincent and Jules in Pulp Fiction
The impala didn’t do much on the “battle” but still a great video.
Predators epic battle.. 🐆🐕🐊
What a spectacular sighting!!
Everyone a gangster until a Male Lion busts the doors open.
those are some brave hyenas fighting with a crocodile!
@Latest Sightings I am a long-time fan of this channel and love the raw and realistic portrayal of African wildlife it shows. However, is there no way to ban Dutti from commenting on your videos? A lot of what he says could be classified as hate speech, which is surely against RUclips's TOS. I am sick and tired of seeing him start pointless arguments in each one of the comment sections on your fantastic wildlife videos! It takes away from the appreciation of nature that your channel tries to bring to us and makes us leave videos after reading the comment section with a sour taste in our mouths. Is there anything that can be done about this?
Crocodiles ❤❤. Once again they prove why they are the king
The first hyena was a subadult. You can recognize that on his light color fur and small size. The second hyena was an adult and took on the crocodile 1v1. The subadult hyena chased the leopard off
@@Dutti215 yeah but the point is in the end crocodile won. Even three hyenas couldn't steal the prey from croc. Had it been lion in place of crocodile, it would have ended differently.
@@Predatorx2648 LOL Lion fanboy. These were 2 hyenas and the first hyena was a subadult. Why did you make them 3 hyenas? Only the adult hyena took on the crocodile 1v1 and took a big part of the impala lmao
@@Predatorx2648 Hyenas attack and steal the kill from female lions at equal numbers. There’s ”3 lionesses lose their kill to 3 hyenas” video and ”hyena attack and defeat a huge lioness and steal her kill” video lmao
@@Predatorx2648There,s ”lion vs hyena after digging a warthog” video and ”7 hyenas chase 5 lions off their kill” video lmao
Every predator wants to eat them! They really are the cheeseburger of the plains! 😂
3:10 Lions will never have that courage in their lives.
WTF 😂😂 there are multiple videos where lion hunting crocs as well as lion feeding near river but crocs can't do nothing and also a lion drags croc with wildebeests in his mouth 😂
so you're walking along and singing to yourself "la la la I love being an impala...." then you see a leopard and you're like "uh oh" then you look over and there's a hyena and you're like "oh crap" then you see 2 crocodiles show up too and then you're like "WTF is this a prank?"
Impala: This day could not get any better
WOW! Absolutely EPIC!
Beautiful setting
Crocodile: yo bro you hungry?
Other Crocodile: nah not really
Crocodile: well i am so have my follow up
Other Crocodile: lead the way bro.
Alright i give up this channel gets my subscription
Welcome. We have plenty of crazy sightings like this one!
For an unexpected encounter, it looks promising
Photographer: do you know something called zoom in ?
😂😂😂😂 he didn't want to be eaten through the lens!
@izeddinhussein3229 everyone's got a complaint.
This was actually on the other side of the river. Person filming was about 310m from the sighting 👀 We had to use major stabilization it was zoomed in so much 😅
@@Latestsightingswow!
You are teaching to one of the top genuine content providers on animals
Thanks, very kool. ✌🏻👊🏼
I just want to know what shit did someone do in their past life to deserve being reincarnated as an Impala
Thank lots for sharing..
Alligators like well what do we have here
Superb footage.
"Battles"?! More like 'gets eaten by'.
My God, what a view❤
What an impressive battle. You eat me! No you eat me! Oohh, no you! You're the one!
Thank you
Leopard: fuck this shit im out🎵
The other croc got too tired from walking on land, decided to just watch..haha
Er, when did the impala battle the crocodile?
this is an incredible sighting just WOW! they were all fighting for that antelope just like kid's😂😂😂 beautifull sighting
the impala's horoscope that day read: "a good day to stay in bed"
but he said he didnt believe in that stuff
Croc's be like so you guy's say the land is your's eh! 😂😂😂
Confused by those tricky little apostrophes, aren't you?
That is survival of the strongest 1 on 1
a moment of silence for all impalas.
How can I add a shark to this equation? 🤔
Very interesting interaction.. even more the conversation 😂
Crazy sighting !
Well, that's a first. Crazy sighting.
Leopard so elusive, agile, smart and strong. Basically letting the hyena do the dirty work while he watches if there was a tree, gameover
awesome footage
the second croc sitting there like: 🗿
This is the equivalent of saying “man fights truck, and paramedics” then showing a video of a guy getting flattened by a semi and scraped off the road by first responders…
No joke I thought the thumbnail was clickbait. I cannot believe this was reality!
When everybody wants a piece of you😂
as long as you have hooves, you are born to graze and RUN for your life.
If cameras didn't exist I wouldn't believe it😂
Nature and life are just plain cruel😢
YOU are part of life, and "nature," (which is the NATURAL WORLD as opposed to the SPIRITUAL WORLD), as we ALL are. Are you cruel? I doubt it.
Negative, blanket statements like yours are ridiculous and erroneous.
There is ineffable beauty
in life and nature, along with its obvious "dark side."
How people like you are oblivious to this blatant fact is incomprehensible to me.
Respectfully😊😊
@miltonmoore8369
Im not a vegan liberal protester lol. I just don't like to see animals suffer. I am a meat eater but i would rather not see the dark side. I have hunted believe it or not.
Impala:Just wants to live another day.
God: NO
Impala fights off Crocodiles and Hyenas and Leopards! It was a glorious battle!
