Lionesses sometimes take advantage of meals hunted by other predators, like leopards.

A leopard was spotted in a tall tree with a delicious meal and two lionesses were on duty to steal it.

A lioness hurried up a tree, causing the leopard to drop its meal. Another lioness grabbed the fallen prey and ran off while the first one attacked the leopard.

Just as the situation seemed intense, a herd of elephants appeared, disturbed by the chaos. Their trumpeting forced the lioness to flee, allowing the leopard to escape.

The elephants had unintentionally saved the leopard. What a great move.
