Here is a male leopard with a "kill" (an impala he had killed) in a tree. They eat in trees so that competing predators cannot steal their kill from them. This was the same tree and leopard we were watching when the hyenas came up to pick up the scraps of food that fell to the ground. We even got to watch the leopard hold onto its prey in its mouth and jump up the tree branch to branch.
