Impala Evades Crocodile's Jaws, Only to Fall into Leopard's Clutches

In this extraordinary sighting, we witness a young and unfortunate impala facing overwhelming odds. Initially captured by a crocodile, the impala demonstrates incredible strength and determination in its battle against the reptile. However, its triumph is short-lived as it soon encounters an even fiercer opponent—a hungry leopard.

This astonishing series of events was captured on camera by Angela and Craig Weeks, a doctor and banker respectively, during their recent visit to Kruger National Park a few weeks ago.

Angela and Craig share their account of the incident with Animalbee.com: “We were observing a herd of impala gathered around a large, muddy pond that had formed near the road after heavy rains near Biyamiti Weir. Among them, we noticed one Impala with a broken leg and decided to take a closer look. Suddenly, a 4-foot crocodile lunged out of the water, seizing a young impala and dragging it beneath the murky surface

“A fierce struggle ensued for approximately 2 minutes, during which the impala managed to break free from the crocodile’s grasp and leap out of the water. The impala herd had been emitting loud alarm calls throughout the impala-crocodile confrontation, which is essentially a distress call alerting any predators in the vicinity that a potential meal is at hand. Responding to the alarm calls, a nearby leopard arrived to investigate if an opportunity for an easy meal had presented itself.”

“The leopard spotted the impala in the water and didn’t have to wait long. Just as the unlucky impala had escaped the crocodile’s clutches, it fell victim to the leopard’s stealthy ambush

“We were left in awe by the unexpected impala takedown and astonished that a crocodile had been lurking in such a small mud pool. When the impala eventually eluded the crocodile, we experienced a sense of relief, only to be completely taken aback by the leopard’s swift attack. It was an unforgettable sighting and a truly ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ experience for our family.”

“After all the commotion subsided, the leopard proceeded to consume the impala in the shade of a fallen tree nearby. We had the privilege of witnessing this remarkable spectacle alongside our two boys, aged 8 and 11, as well as their grandfather.”
