The adult cat's natural instinct to protect her food, but her claws are retracted when 'smacking' the cub out of a mother's instinct not to harm her baby. Amazing sighting ❤️

That was the FASTEST 7 minutes of KZread video that I've ever seen. Talk about intense action and suspense! I think its fair to say that the Mother is not only tolerating, but teaching her sub-adult cub to be persistently diligent about territorial behavior, and survival. "Survival of the fittest," is definitely THE Ideology of Leopards and The Wild Kingdom. 🐆🐾

of course,animal beheaviour they know it we would never know it but mother is always mother,baby is always a baby

Awesome how mom is teaching her baby the art of the steal and getting it's food. She made the cub work for it and practice working for it's meal. She will continue to provide but at the same time, showing her baby how to work for it's food and it won't just be laid out in front of her to eat anymore. What a beautiful steal too and you could tell the mom was just waiting for it to happen. All the times she was growling it was a mad growl it is just a "you aren't going to get it easy." What a great mom and she is giving her baby confidence for the future when it is out on it's own at some point. What a fantastic sighting and I enjoyed watching it a few times now. Absolutely Gorgeous animals! They are definitely 2 of my favorites on your safaris and I always watch any videos with them in it. For awhile you only had videos of the island female without her cub and I was worried about it. But the last one I watched before this one of the 2 was when she contacted called her baby and it came running over and they somewhat played and the cub laid right on top of her mom. Beautiful relationship between them and fabulous videoing of them. Thanks for bringing this to us.

*Purely Outstanding sighting*❤️Highly attractive & amusing (natural behaviours)🙌 both cheeky characters of the bush😂Always a delight to see these two💞utterly divine. One day, her cub will learn to change its spots🤞but no doubt with the same feisty qualities as the mom💜Thank you so much, *𝓜𝓪𝓵𝓪𝓜𝓪𝓵𝓪*🥰Take care

That. Was. Incredible!! What a little spitfire is that cubbie……and she was patient and got her way in the end. Her mama taught her well.

Clear message from the mom: freeloading time is (nearly) over! Soon you'll have to catch your own dinner..🤣🤣

Love this sighting! The cub stealing the carcass literally made me laugh out loud. Great video.

Great to see the cub so big and healthy. Seems like just yesterday he was a tiny little fluffer and we would all worry when mom was trying to find him. 😺

I think this has to be one of my favourite leopard sightings to date !! Epic work x

What finesse and balance on that branch . Stunning!!

What a great clip of these beautiful animals. Mom was pretty much ready to let it go - and cubbie got a nice meal at the end. Wonderful sighting.

A very different view of Leopard mother teenage cub relationship. Great capture!!

All I could do is shake my head and smile

Oh wow, the little cub has the Island females feisty and amazing spirit. Absolutely awesome sighting, thanks so much guys.

Two beautiful 🐆and this video was perfect. The STEAL was not one at all. I think that the Mother leopard was all but done with carcass when it was TAKEN by her hungry (or greedy) offspring.

I love leopard.. pretty amazing how they climb in the trees,the balancing is just amazing..

This is so cute, endearing and entertaining! Mum-strong, capable and loyal is not raising a daughter to be the same! Love them both! Thank you so much MalaMala!

Island female is a legend, put aside her famous father, she alone engaged at least two fights which falls from very high tree and not get hurt at all

That was such a special sighting. What an agile cub....cunning and persistent....attributes that will hopefully give this cub a good chance of surviving to independent adulthood ❤🌹

Excellent video! Thank you! 😉🇺🇸

Leopard cub before snatching the food: "Mom, you're exaggerating. Let me eat a little!"

Tina CA Thank you for your sharing video 👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄😄

absolutely incredible footage, MalaMala.......brilliant to see ❤👍🏻

Momma's like " holy crap child, it's bad enough I gotta deal with this with hyenas and other cats but my own kid? Come on now." 😂🤣🤣

"Mom said, 'If you snatch this food out of this tree, I'm gonna slap the snot out of you!'" I know that's right, lol!!!🤣🤣😂

I admire Leopard's wealth of skills (just added multitasking to the list) & confidence. They're amusing...I'm used to them teasing other animals but this is new & adorable.

This is an amazing video thanks for sharing 👍

Daughter was sneaky lol. Stole that when mom was cleaning herself lol.

Leopards are the most amazing Wildlife 🔥. Love all their Sightings

Stunning footage as usual MalaMala 👏

Dit was baie goeie foto grafie, ek is baie dankbaar, dat julle dit met ons deel,

The gloves are off, no more cuddling from mommy. Classic teenager :D

So cool to see Island Female and cub doing so well...

Always so special Mala Mala!

The mother lowkey loved it

That's the fastest shop lifter ever.

the small leopard got the spidermans skills

Her paws are full with this one.

@@Zain948 Leopards are solitary hunters. Every time you see them two or three it's a mother and it's cubs. The mother can nurture the male cubs until they are chased off her by male competitors for mating (as they will be just young adult males. The female cubs are chased by the mother from the moment they reach 'puberty' and start 'smelling sexy' like her, to fend off mating competition.

Is that a sign of a cub being warned is grown up and needs to hunt for itself?

Never give up !!!! : )) Thanks for sharing!

It must be a female cub. That's what leopards do when their daughters reach puberty, as they do not want competition on mating. A male cub can continue to be nursed even long after a sister sibling has been chucked away.

Looks like a game or training for the cub

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thats gratitude for you, brings the cub up and then steals her food lol

Great to watch the interaction!. Wondered if the cub was really hungry?.

This is kind of a lesson. She is almost saying "If you wanna it, then take it from me". He'll need it going forward.

Já estava satisfeito.

The mom already had her fill otherwise the cub would have had no chance

Amazing!!

hahahahhaha,they can eat together.haha,i see he is still small. i dont know what he or he tellinhg to mother but saying"give me a part i wil eat too:: hhahahah ,nice

Awesome. It is part of the ritual for the cub to start gaining independence. In a few months, the mother will get in heat again and will push the cub away to obtain full independence.

lots of action, love this video if that’s his mother, there isn’t any love in that family

ĂN MÀ CŨNG GIÀNH NỮA

They eat super slow that's why their food always gets stolen leopard makes love to the food

Mother leopards Don't mess around when it comes a certain age for the cub. Even when cubs can hunt for themselves they still try to eat first and take the kills mom gets. Mothers Don't put up with that. They'll whoop their cubs butt lol

I've never seen a leopard show an understanding of partitioning a kill. Hyenas know how to snap a leg off and run off with it, but leopards seem to think it's all or nothing. Poor cub could have taken the hanging leg for himself, but he'll have to wait for his tyrant mother to gorge herself first instead.

Esse bicho é muito lindo

Is this the world's worst mum? "Get u own dam dinner son"

Like any mother, this mother too would have normally let her child feed. Maybe the mother herself was starved, may not have eaten for days. So here she feeds herself first to be able to hunt again and finally lets her child feed at the end.
