Luxury five-star lodge, Last Word Kitara, on the banks of the Klaserie River in the Greater Kruger National Park, recently shared a video of a leopard stalking its prey.

The thinned-out bushveld also makes it easier for prowling predators to hunt down their prey.
Corlius Viljoen, safari ranger at Last Word Kitara, captured the majesty of the leopard. Have a look:
