What the hell are those leopards doing?

Edit: Don’t listen to George. I’m sure this picture had a happy ending.

    Have you seen the full series? They play with it, toying with their food. Then they kill and eat the impala.

    Blame George for making it gruesome.

    George is quite right. The cheetahs cubs (not leopards) get the hunting skills by playing around with live food. The sad part is the gazelle kid is utterly confused.

    I saw this a long time ago on Nat Geo i think, The gazelle (whatever it is) is a new born animal and could not differentiate between mom and predator. It even tries to suckle the cheetah.
