So we were up the hill heading south when the call came over the radio that some lions in the north had treed a leopard. So we turned right around for the hour drive to that location in the hours that the leopard would still be in the tree. We even managed to see a lone cheetah walking along while we were en route.
And the leopard obliged...well the lions obliged by sleeping under the tree so the poor leopard could not come down. It was fun at first but after the leopard had been stuck up there for over three hours in the hot sun and we had gotten out photos we really wanted the lions to cut him a break and wander off. And as much as we would have rooted for the lioness against the wildebeest the night before we absolutely did not want to see the leopard fall to its death on top of a pride of lions.
William assures us that the leopard eventually go away. But then again I asked him not to tell me any differently no matter what.
