1:15 “Just imagine every time you want to have a meal, you have to put your life at risk” ... yeah, that’s what goes through my mind whenever I go to McDonald’s or KFC.
@ButterflySpirit, yes it is wild, but that collar means whoever gave that Leopard the collar (presumably a Scientist) to keep track of its life and if it is okay
Meaning they were never in any real danger. Like those bragging about snorkeling with sharks - but you'll never sees the shark that attacks which it does from a distance in an angle blind for the target, very speedy and determined. Leopard attacks happens from tree branches full of leaves hiding the predator. Once you discover it...it is all over you giving you the red kiss on your throat.
EXTRAORDINARY ENCOUNTER! C'mon people, the poor animal has got a radio collar attached to his neck, and basically every move it makes, there goes hundreds of tourists following it. It gets hard for it to survive this way.
The way I've heard it, leopards are the most dangerous big cat to you people -- even more than tigers, lions and jaguars. Something about being really very smart... but wait I thought that was your thing. :o
They are considered the most dangerous animal in Africa because they hide on low hanging branches of trees and attack the nano second that you look up and discover them. Unlike elephants, lions, buffaloes and rhinos which generally only attack if hunted or having the perimeter of their territory violated by reckless tourist, the leopard just attack and gives you no time to react. (quote: John A. Hunter, big game hunter) But then again.......the malaria mosquito is unchallenged the animal killing most people.
Right! What you don't know is that this kind of tourism became a multi-million dollars factory. A Leopard nowadays is being sold for over $50.000,00 dollars to private parks, and the natives get little, or most of the time, nothing of it.
I feel like this guys throws food out there because he always gets so close to animals ans they always so happen to be looking around as if they seen him throw some food. Less him, more animals. He doesnt have to be in 3/4's of every footage
Actually tagging these animals helps scientists better understand their habits and can deter poaching. Any human involvement is interference on some level but i would rather have these British scientists be there than some gang banging African poachers.
Agree. I have seen leopards on many occasions. They completely disregard the trucks. Anyway we are not interested in the "wows" of the narrator but in seeing the wonderful cat.
BBC? Leopard? Probably a clip from Big Cat Diary, well no actually, it's greatly inferior, whereas BCD told us about the way that these cats live, here we're just getting a sensationalised clip of a leopard who, unaccountably, has a collar on!
Iv been to Africa a few times now and seen over 20 leopards and they never ever get boring.
Which part of Africa?
Reem Musa Tanzania and South Africa
1:15 “Just imagine every time you want to have a meal, you have to put your life at risk” ... yeah, that’s what goes through my mind whenever I go to McDonald’s or KFC.
Right now that comment makes sense.
Glad I happened upon this clip. Love the Leopards!
his facial expression oh my god lool
What a beautiful kitty
I have never seen such beauty and savagery in one being. It is like creation is making fun of us.
Steve: "Its our first clear look at the leopard"
Cameraman: Hold my camera
Magnificent animal !
that leopard is just lookig directly at the camera. "What 'chu looking at?"
Why does the leopard have a collar on. Interesting
They forgot to edit the collar and replace it with some leopard spots
Why would they edit the collar? That's just a tracker, which they put on them after hitting them with a tranquilliser.
Classic British. Pick the only day it rains in Africa and it just happens to be the day they go leopard spotting
See what I did there😂
Fast fighter of the forest
Go beautiful go
is that leopard someones because there is a collar on it
Awesome.
She's a beautiful female leopard 🐆
this is kind of a romantic encounter
Interesting!
0:58 anyone home?
radio collar, it's so they know where it's going.
@ButterflySpirit, yes it is wild, but that collar means whoever gave that Leopard the collar (presumably a Scientist) to keep track of its life and if it is okay
This is just a short clip form a BBC program, the actual TV footage would be much longer and more detailed.
If a prey (sometmes human) can see leopard it's too late. The most agile predators in the World
Meaning they were never in any real danger. Like those bragging about snorkeling with sharks - but you'll never sees the shark that attacks which it does from a distance in an angle blind for the target, very speedy and determined.

Pacero sssshhhhhh
Not for tourists it's to prevent hunters

hard life
why does it have a collar if its in the wild
Setting in an open top jeep with big cats around, yep that's one of the smartest thing you can do. And people wonder why they get attacked
Sounds absurd but sitting in an open jeep, leopards do not usualy reccon you as a pray or threat. They just see a jeep.
Why does it have a collar
So scientists, vets and researchers can monitor the leopards movements. They wear them for a period of time then they automatically drop off.
its for GPS to study the animal
Because it is not wild - if it was and stranger to humans it would have taken hiding in a tree.
After the elusive water vole.

did anyone notice the leopard had a colar on? is it trained?
i agree i seen it to
I noticed that she had a coler on
I feel like this guys throws food out there because he always gets so close to animals ans they always so happen to be looking around as if they seen him throw some food. Less him, more animals. He doesnt have to be in 3/4's of every footage
at 2:11 a normal person would just drive away...

2:45 a wild leopard.....wearing a collar??
Nice !
It’s a scientist collar so they can track it and check on it
💕👍
Leopards often come close to the trucks time to stop the overacting
Agree. I have seen leopards on many occasions. They completely disregard the trucks. Anyway we are not interested in the "wows" of the narrator but in seeing the wonderful cat.
Ok and tf he see the animal and to him it is an honor to be that close to it so he is very excited
they pretend like they stumbled on it its got a collar with gps so they know azackly where it is
Ce qui m'intéresse ce sont les Léopards, le mec me les casse...
1980
Is bbc about leopards or presenters? Shut up
