00:00 Baboons wake up from a night spent in high tree branches.
00:15 These monkeys live in groups of up to 400 of them without a single leader.
00:22 This is a very complex society made up of dozens of small groups each ruled by a male.
00:32 Every morning they leave the safety of the tree tubs to make sure there is no danger
00:37 around them.
00:40 Mothers leave their young on tree branches but it looks like a leopard has crept in their
00:48 absence.
00:52 And it's clear the prey will be baby baboons.
00:59 This predator is a very skilled climber.
01:05 Baboons rarely exist on his food list but conflicts between them over the tree tubs
01:10 always happen.
01:14 Although the baboon is burly, this little monkey still does not have the necessary skill
01:19 to escape from the claws of the leopard.
01:28 The mother of this little baboon heard her son screaming and was on her way back wherever
01:33 she was to try to save him.
01:38 It's the right moment.
01:43 With its sharp claws the leopard reached the prey and knocked it down with a potentially
01:49 ferocious blow.
01:53 But unfortunately for him his mother arrived.
01:59 It is impossible to overcome it in the high branches of this tree.
02:05 He lost in front of her.
02:07 Now the mother has to take her baby away from that place.
02:12 But this leopard could still track them and come back at any time.
02:17 Especially after confirming that she will be alone now.
02:21 The mother tries to hide her son before this predator returns.
02:26 And she did it.
02:28 But she didn't know she would become the target.
02:32 The leopard had learned that if its prey was on the ground it would be very easy to catch
02:37 it and here we noticed that he received a larger prey than what he failed to catch on
02:43 the first attempt.
02:45 As for the mother, she saved her son to become the prey.
