Rare footage: a female leopard transfers her kittens across the road

A lucky visitor to a safari park in South Africa witnessed a rare sight. She saw a leopard mother moving her cubs across the road.

Safari park guests went to a trick to see the inhabitants of Kruger National Park in South Africa. 64-year-old Tinus Delport asked her daughters to sing to lure the animals, and, to their surprise, it worked. A female leopard with two cubs came out of the bushes. The patient predator showed the kids how to cross the road.

64-year-old Tinus Delport captured rare footage in Kruger National Park. It is rare to see a leopard with cubs at such a young age.

Delport saw the animals cross the road 6 km from the Lower Sabi in the direction of the Crocodile Bridge. The female leopard led the cubs across the road. Emerging from the thicket, the mother studied the area. The two cubs followed her.

Motorists stopped to watch what was happening:

The timid kid did not immediately figure out where to go.

One of the cubs lost sight of his mother, lay down on the road and squeaked plaintively. The female immediately returned for him.

The leopards crossed the road safely and disappeared from sight.
