Poor cat ! U know she did spent thousands of preciuos canaries just to earn this kill , now all she got nothing to keep her strong . And with this gash . One stolen meal can be life or death to her unlike hyneas ! Why ? Because how many skin & bones hyenas have we seen comparing to the lions & other big cats that do die of starvation .

Hi S.W. Tsang, it was difficult to watch, she must have expended a lot of energy into taking down the impala and then not having the joy of eating it. I hope that she was able to make another kill the next day to fill the hunger gap that she must have had.

Beautiful & I hope that the wound heals quickly & that she gets a good meal, preferably up in the tree before thieves come back again :'(
