cat and dog stand off A lot of noise, but no real intent. The dogs (19 in all) just wanted the competition off their patch and the cheetah, a mother with three 18 month female cubs, were looking for peace and quit.

  1. Wow, you're lucky to capture this, fantastic moment! Posted 10 years ago
    1. I know! We had the most amazing 3 hour drive, this was followed, in the dark, by mating leopard and serval cat!
      Couple of days later the same dogs had a massive run in with 2 hyena.
