i walk toward you
We were in the Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya. This female leopard was coming straight at us at the end of the day, his gaze was determined to find prey. She passed by us, we followed her along the river but we lost her in the woods. It was too late to continue following her. The sun was going down and we had to get out of the reserveWe found her the next morning perched in a tree with her prey, a Thomson gazelle. I love this beautiful leopard, we stay 6 hours whit her the next day.
