Grandmother Lioness Goes After Leopard to Protect Pride's Cubs

As the lion pride relaxes, their resident grandmother sets off on a mission. She's unlikely to be hunting antelope, but can help the pride in other ways. She arrives at the resident leopard's favourite haunt. The vengeful nature of rival predators is the darker side of motherhood. And scientists are only beginning to understand it. Maybe she lost litter after litter to successive generations of leopards. The old lioness can't see the leopard, but the puku pinpoint it with their alarm calls. The cunning leopard cuts around behind the old lioness, doing her best to avoid a scuffle. But the grandmother still has her wits about her, and won't relent until her rival backs off.
