00:00 Wild nature, no matter how wonderful and interesting, always hides the harshness.
00:07 As life in the jungle and savannah operates under the rule that the strong will rule and
00:13 all the animals always have to fight for survival.
00:17 In today's video, follow us to discover the attacks of leopards, the animals known
00:24 as super predators in this land of Africa.
00:27 Let's go.
00:32 Leopards attack a porcupine.
00:37 Known as one of the four largest species of the feline family, having the largest distribution
00:43 of wild cats, occurring wildly in Africa, as well as eastern and southern Asia, they
00:52 are exponentially adaptable.
00:54 Although their habitat is mainly associated with savannah grasslands and the tropical
00:59 forests.
01:00 Leopards are the most successful feline species because they can eat anything, scarabs and
01:08 other.
01:09 They have a relatively perfect appearance, with a weight of 30 to 90 kilograms.
01:15 The leopard relies mainly on its keen senses of hearing and sight to hunt.
01:21 Stalking and ambushing is the secret to this leopard's success in every hunt.
01:28 With the inherent hunting skills and great speed, will the leopard succeed in hunting
01:38 a prey with a high level of difficulty and danger like this porcupine?
01:48 Despite only having a body weight of 6 to 20 kilograms, the porcupine possesses thick
01:54 and extremely sharp hairs.
01:56 The porcupine's spines can be up to 30 centimeters long and are composed mainly of keratin, a
02:04 material similar to human hairs and nails.
02:08 This is also an extremely effective defensive tool for porcupines against other predators.
02:17 Because any predator when confronting a porcupine will have to be weary and many times they
02:23 have had to receive a miserable ending.
02:26 This leopard wants to try his hand at hunting porcupines.
02:32 Despite possessing very sharp claws and outstanding strength, the leopard was still unable to
02:38 strike a fatal blow to the porcupine.
02:42 This porcupine defended and counterattacked by holding his sharp spikes at the opponent
02:48 and injuring it.
02:50 However, this leopard stubbornly pursued and wanted to conquer this prey.
02:57 With his fierce resistance, the porcupine caused the leopard to receive an extremely
03:02 painful ending, as the porcupine's spikes had already pierced its body, causing great
03:10 damage.
03:11 However, this leopard is still lucky because many times there are animals that have lost
03:18 their lives, because the porcupine's spikes are too deep and cause a serious injury.
03:25 This will probably be a valuable lesson for this leopard when it does not know its own
03:34 strength.
03:36 Despite being a slow-moving animal, notorious predators cannot defeat them as easily as
03:41 other prey.
03:42 And when attacked, the porcupines use their sharp spike feathers to protect themselves,
03:49 as they move, ruffling their sharp spines to warn off potential predators.
03:55 If that does not work, they will fend off predators with attacks.
04:01 The sharp spikes are attached very loosely, but it cannot be dropped or ejected, as due
04:07 to its sharp nature, the porcupine feathers easily penetrate deep into the skin of the
04:12 enemy, causing great injury and even death.
04:18 Although knowing that this is an extremely dangerous prey, when the harshness and scarcity
04:24 of food becomes severe, leopards still have to risk their lives to hunt porcupines.
04:32 A still-familiar stalker, the leopard discovered its prey.
04:36 However, if it did not dare to attack and it was a little scared, and with the flexibility
04:43 and hunting techniques that have been tempered over time, leopards have defeated this porcupine.
04:49 However, it was pierced by the porcupine's spines all over its body.
04:55 Despite the pain, the leopard is still determined to drag its prey to a safe place to enjoy.
05:03 This leopard was lucky enough to catch a porcupine and that is using its strong teeth to bring
05:09 its prey to a secluded place to enjoy.
05:14 Besides the agility and the endurance in climbing trees, leopards also have a huge strength
05:21 that few animals can match.
05:24 Thanks to its huge skull, powerful jaw muscles, and extraordinary strength, the leopard can
05:30 pull a carcass heavier than itself up a tree.
05:34 Usually they will carry their prey up a tree to avoid disturbing hyenas or vultures, and
05:41 store their food for times when there is not a suitable hunt.
05:46 As many times, leopards have succeeded in hunting porcupines, but in this hunt, the
05:52 leopards were killed due to their injuries.
05:56 It can be seen that although the body is not as large as other animals, the leopard is
06:01 endowed with agility and cunningness that no other animal can match.
06:11 However, in confronting their prey with powerful defensive weapons such as porcupines, leopards
06:21 cannot avoid unintended injuries.
