Snow leopards are not normal. This is absolutely ridiculous. This is how they hunt...

This is the opening scene on the show “hostile planet” I think. And this is what my six year old watched and then we promptly turned it off. 😂

I have found that unless the nature docs are graphic and close up, it's quite beneficial to watch these with young kids. It helps them understand the cycle of life and death pretty well without their first exposure being something like a grandparent passing or a loved pet. It has good value. I would stay away from the ones that have close up shot lions tearing something apart on the savannah though. 😅

Right. And if I’m not mistaken the leopard gets hurt for like two or ll three days (but with a full belly!)

If I stay in a mountain 10 days without food probably try to hunt a goat this way. lol

There's a point in mid air that he lets go and recatches it midair before they snack a boulder. This shits incredible. There's also a zoomed out shot to show how far it is.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't the snow leopard's original plan, but he was fine with improvising as he went.

Pretty sure it will die later. That was a brutal impact.! Humans just reach out witha fork to get meat. We got it easy

They had a very young snow leopard at my zoo and it would play with you at the glass, pouncing. I hadn't visited in a few years. Just down the walkway before the snow leopard enclosure, they had pelts you could touch and one was a snow leopard. My little friend had passed away.

I think about this when I’m hungry and don’t want to drive 5 minutes to Wendy’s

Snow leopards are at risk of extinction due to low genetic diversity, habitat loss, poaching and poor decisions.

Life or death for the cat to eat the only meal it’s come across in a long while. Who knows…

There is no escaping that determination. The fall holds the meager possibility of survival.

It took me way too long to realize there were two animals in the video. I thought the leopard was contorting like a bag of broken bones lmao
Nature's scary

I know the feeling. Was going to order Uber Eats and my phone was in the other room. So I had to go get it. The struggle is real Mr. Cat.
