Drama in the Delta: Pula's close call with a python

In December, through a stroke of incredible timing, the team at Mombo Camp witnessed an extraordinary scene unfold before them. One of celebrity-leopard Pula's two tiny cubs was spotted climbing out of the tree she had hidden them in. The cub had just managed to evade a python which had taken its little sibling. When Pula returned from hunting she carried the surviving cub to safety, headed to the tree where the python hid and valiantly attempted retribution. View video footage here!
