I can't say how many times I watched this back to back. Her courage to protect her babies is mind blowing.

[CharlieHumboldt]

The lady asking "can you scare them?!?!?!?"... Then she herself growls Had me dying!!😂😂

[martinsks.a]

What makes this even more amazing is that the Leopard seems to be a young mom. Those were probably her first cubs that she was fighting for.

[franciscoportillo]

That leopardess stood on business. She was completely outmatched because of the size disparity alone, but she was savage as heck! A whirlwind of teeth and claws.

[romevo]

The size difference is terrible. Brave leopard 🐆. Mothers instinct is so strong 💪

[MrLanum]

😂 the woman really tried to growl to scare them 😂😂😂

[Andre-wpe]

A mom protecting her young is a force to be reckoned with in any species

Восхищен этой великой силой и отвагой матери, защищающей своего котенка! Несмотря на огромную разницу в размерах, мамуля, без колебаний ринулась в бой. Просматривая видео с драками больших кошек, специалисты отмечают одну особенность у леопардов и ягуаров, когда они дерутся, они специально ложаться на спину и начинают наносить удары своими безумно сильными лапами. В этом видео произошло тоже самое. Мама сразу "нырнула" под львицу и прицельно била задними лапами по морде львице, когда та пыталась приблизить к лео свою пасть, а передними лапами, мама, наносила удары в самое незащищенное место у всех животных - брюхо. Когда начальный отпор был дан, мама леопард мгновенно стала уводить львицу за собой, защищая котят. Потрясающее хладнокровие! Ведь леопард, не на секунду не забывала про своих котят и сделала всё так, как надо, для спасения и себя, и котят.

The courage and bravery of that mother leopard is amazing

[MatthewLequay-fbse]

What I love is that courage of the leopard apart from the fact that she knows the lioness is 3 times her size but was able to still stand up to the lioness and negate her away from the leopard cubs.Thats a mother's strength right there

[CynthiasTikka]

That lady saying, i don't like this. Then she growls at the end of the video. Thats hilarious! 🤣 But i felt the same way too!

[kaepernickjae]

There is nothing more fearless than a mother trying to protect her baby

[joshuadeshaies]

Lionesses are absolute powerhousees. They are formidable brawlers. And they are really big animals. What a brave leopard 🐆

[jessrosales]

That's a true mother protecting her pups. The love a true mother has.

[hawkins]

The lady's grrrr at the end is what saved the day 😂

[johnkarniol]

That's too funny. Can you scare them? 😂 They're not afraid of each other, do you think they'll be afraid of this woman. 😂

[Aiketin]

The videographer growling at the end is what broke it up. True hero.

[sarahruss]

A mothers love means I’d die for you. She wouldn’t have won that fight but she faced it anyways. Brave mama 🔥❤️.

[Retired]

She was in the most perfect position all things considered to defend herself, her back legs were tearing at the lionesses face, while her sharper front claws and jaws gripped at her exposed and vulnerable underside and stomach. If she was flipped around head to head, her neck is immediately exposed and she’s overpowered square on, I can’t tell if she deliberately flipped that way or if the lioness unbalanced her, but that definitely saved her life!

The lioness looked heavily pregnant too, and may have possibly played a role into how she hesitated and backed off enough for a moment giving enough time for the leopard to escape, she may have encountered her because she herself was looking for an area like this to give birth shortly, amazing video as always guys ❤

[HVS]

Motherly feeling overpowered everything. So touching.
