Leopard Cubs: Male Territory Skirmish

Shot on Location: 

Mala Mala Game Reserve, South Africa, August 2013 with the Canon 1Dx and 500mm f/4 

Back in 2011, I photographed a gorgeous migrant leopard nicknamed the Concrete male. Since then, he carved out a nice territory and was officially named the West Street male. The much huskier Newton leopard had been trying to barge in. But, the West Street male finally bulked up and was now holding his own.
