No fast food here – A Londolozi Leopard’s ordeal just to get a good meal. One thing you won’t see at the zoo is a leopard killing its prey and then climbing 50 feet above the ground to stash it on a top branch of a nearby tree.
Camp Pan Male Hoisting Impala - Lauren Major
This featured video provides an inside look at a recent safari expedition to Londolozi in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. Take a look at how the 13-year-old Camp Pan Male Leopard cleans and then stashes his most recent kill.
Londolozi Leopard’s Kill from Major Multimedia, Inc.
Watch what this intelligent, fierce and undeniably beautiful leopard must do to survive in the wild and make sure he will not lose his meal to hyenas or lions in the area. Under the guidance of our ranger, David Dampier, we observed the Camp Pan Male for three hours in its natural habitat, recording the preparation, meal and then storage of a one-year-old impala.

Thank you Lauren for the fabulous images of my favourite leopard –
Fantastic images and a great video Lauren. Well done and thank you for contributing to the Londoz blog.
Incredible footage! What an amazing sighting!
Incredible sighting and well filmed!
Thank you for the wonderful video of the Camp Pan Male.. He is quite a nice looking leopard. I hope we can see him for at least a few more years.
I think we will MJ, last year it look as though he might have started losing his territory to the Dudley 5:5 Male, however he has bounced back with remarkable resilience and is looking strong and healthy these days. You can view that sighting here: http://blog.londolozi.com/2011/05/camp-pan-and-dudley-55-come-to-blows/
Lets hope his good health continues well into the future as he is such an impressive leopard to watch and spend time with. rich
Great film…even better narrative! Wonderful to have an explanation to go with the behavior.
Thank you!
Lauren,
The footage and presentation was so beautifully done! You are one talented lady! I loved the flashes going off – brought me right back to safari – suspense and action.
Thanks for a great video & narration.
