The cheetah may be the fastest carnivore on the planet, but it’s not the most feared. Compared to relatives of cats such as lions, tigers or leopards, cheetahs are much inferior in size and power. In addition, this leopard specializes in hunting alone, it will certainly have many difficulties when being resisted by prey.
In the video, the cheetahs have no intention of hunting, but just want to walk in the middle of the grassland. However, the presence of predators near the herd is certainly not what wildebeest want. Herds of herbivores pulled together to surround the leopard, deliberately provocative to intimidate the predator.
The leopard initially tried to fight back, but realized the enemy was too large and decided to retreat. Winning the advantage, the antelopes became more aggressive, more bloody, determined to chase and destroy the hunting leopard.
Obviously, the leopard was fast enough to escape the pursuit of the antelope, but it also had a “howling” because of the aggressiveness of the herbivores.
Antelopes are a group of herbivores of the order Even-toed ungulates, family Bovine (Bovidae) living in the continents of Asia, Africa and North America. Antelope includes species other than buffaloes, cows, goats and sheep.
The horned antelope of North America (also called antelope), although colloquially also from antelope, is not a member of the family Bovidae but rather belongs to the family Antilocapridae. True antelopes have horns that do not branch and never shed, while horned gazelles branch and change annually.
