^{After what was probably some painful trial & error, looks like that cat has done that before - Very smooth with no wasted motion at all.}

^{Perhaps not the most tender meal but when play correctly, sure made it look easy.}

I was surprised how powerful that leopard was.I figured advantage to the crocodile once they hit the water.I can't believe the leopard has the power to swim across the river with a struggling crocodile in its mouth. Amazing power!

I am shocked!  I swore the croc would start rolling once they were back in the water.  

 

Pretty cool.

That initial Bite to the back neck was not only a good spot to grip the croc to avoid any damage but also if the cat's canine teeth were of sufficient length & positioned in such a way, that there may be a good bit of "Damage" done.  This may have partially paralyzed the animal reducing the struggle somewhat.

 

The size of the croc is important too, a misjudgment in this area could end up with the cat biting off more than it can chew.  A  wet rodeo type ride may ensue.

I seen this video the other weekend at drill a guy showed me. It's crazy

The cat using the crocadile's own hunting technique against it is what amazes me. Ah the irony....

[Ratherbfishing]

Holy frijoles!  I would've thought that tackling such a beast would require that he finish it off first- before crossing back over.  But obviously it knew what it was doing.  This is probably not the first croc it's ever subdued.

That was awesome!

"I got a movie..." Lol at the camera woman

My three feral cats that I tamed love to go out in the rain and snow. They are all weather cats. None of my other cats in the past ever did this. I even plow my yard making a circle when the snow is too deep for them to go out to do there business too. I make a big circle around my two acres.

I always rescue abandon kittens when I find them when fishing in the wilds. I picked up two pairs of kittens twice in one area two years in a row. I was given three feral kittens that we're born and lived in the wilds. They were so small they fit in my hand. I never knew how bad they were traumatised until I took in two kittens that are happy, happy just to big to stay with mom. These two kittens started playing with the three full grown feral kittens and they have come out of there shell. They actually play fight with the kittens. They all are happy, happy now.

My misses wasn't going to let me go fishing if I brought home anymore kittens. But I figured if I did I would find them homes. I had 9 cats at onetime. Now I have six.

It's sad to have them from kittens to see them die from old age. My oldest kitten now is 16yo.

Interesting.  We have 3 feral cats as well.  Momma cat and 2 of her kittens born this year.  Momma cat is very sweet.  Her two little ones are just as nice.
