David Attenborough narrates the intimate story of a leopard mother and her two cubs. This family must survive in the wilds of Botswana alongside some less-than-friendly neighbours: lions, wild dogs and hyenas. The competition for food is tough, and if they are going to make it they must learn a new skill - they must learn to fish.

I am hungry
Hi hungry
"take three and she's got it"
Love how they hold their tails up in pride after the catch.
I've seen leopards stash their kills in trees before, but never a huge catfish. What a clever kitty!
toxigenic it ain’t no kitty it’s a beast that is a apex predator that will rip apart anything that gets in its way
Samuel Phan would you think that if you were face to face with a WILD one?
Speed kills to fast
@Luan Phan go up and pet it
@@cheezeempire3157 animals are not monsters. a leopard would only attack a human when threatened or hungry. they kill to survive.
Wow!! It’s a double treat!! Leopards hunting catfish in a river at night (rare) and David Attenborough’s silky smooth narration .👍👍
A M Raju you said it...couldnt agree more
Yasmin Roberts i also agree
Yasmin Roberts Thanks. This video made my day.
I am hungry 🌮🍱
Buy one get one free😂😂
Cheetah = speed
Tiger + lion = Strength
Leopards = Brain

Whale = thicc
Panther = Stealth
yelistener to whom u r replying?to me or the original commenter?
Me=gay
This shows just how strong Leopards are. Those catfish are aprox 3ft long and thick. If you tried holding a catfish that big you would know how powerful they can shake. The leopards are totally unfazed by this! You can see that their head and neck don't even move as the leopard casually walks away while the giant catfish shakes in an effort to get away. I guess watching them carry a full grown Antelope up a tree (different video) is a bit more impressive though . I can barely get myself up a tree!! LOL.. Thanks.. :)
In their mouths up a tree , that's power
They are leopards, they can bring down horses and zebras. Catfishes are nothing for them.
Some were almost 5ft long
Well they are one of the Great Cats
African catfish can get really big. Like 5 feet or so. We have some in our pond but the government banned them.
My grandpa used to cut the tip of his finger with a knife and stick it in the river where the catfish were basking. The catfish would be attracted to the smell so they’d come up and bite my grandpas finger, and then he’d use his bare hands to grab the catfish and carry it away. It was so badass!
So he was a live bait himself.
Wow
😂 that really is badass!
Noodling, i've heard of that.
This is so satisfying, how the leopard concentrates on the fish
Kitty and puppy Lover yes. he's so quick and his agility is amazing just wow
Teach a leopard to fish and he will never be hungry...
Impala & warthog: lol
@@jamesband3978 This is a Taoist phrase.
I think surviving in water is more important
the problem is fish is difficult to keep in the tree, very slippery
Teach him to grow his own then he can make his living too.
Leopard: "don't give me fish, just teach me to fish"
Holy crap, the size of these catfish @ 3:12!!
I know some fishermen are probably foaming at the mouth
@taikodrummer maybe its a cub
@taikodrummer look up the wels catfish
@@haybtooda2243 No it was defiitely a catfish.😁
@@damienchristian4789 It's one of the only types of fish I'll try to catch. Because I like to eat them. I was definitely impressed.
I was amazed at how big the catfish actually are! Quite a feat to catch something that size. Incredible! I've never seen wild cats pursue fish like this.
Catfish are tasty.
This is the evolution of big cats. They are learning the new technique of predation and passing forward to their offsprings. Great!!👍👍
Aditya Ranjan thats adaption not evoulation
Isham2 W ...That’s not how evolution works.
Well my friends, Evolution is a continuous & slow process (some scientists say it is saltatory also). We can't see it within few days. Evolution means the act of unfolding or unrolling. Simply, it is an orderly 'Change'. Leopards generally don't hunt in water but in this case they are doing. They are adapting & if this adaptation (either be in body structure or in the behaviour) is restored and passes to their offsprings through gametes, there could be a new species or subspecies which will share similarities with other cats to varying degrees ( As we see in Darwin's finches, Australian marsupials etc. i.e. Adaptive radiation - a process of evolution)
No its not. The leopard could only have been created by God. Stop shoving your evolution beliefs down everyone's throat in every video, typical obsessed atheist missionary fanatic.
Adaption is a mechanism of evolution. İf this skill repressed by environmental factors, it'll be adaptation. And, maybe there is a God, maybe there are gods or there is no god; it doesn't matter for evolution. Evolution is exist.
I am a big fan of sir David Attenborough's documentaries.
Cubs are learning by watching her catching them. They will improvise on their own and will pass on to their cubs. They will add their own variations and this type of knowledge will pass through generations.
1:00 hahaha, They're all laughing at her
40 seconds later...
Like seriously, why stick your head out the water to look. Get your ass to somewhere else far down river unless you want to get ate. I guess that is why they are called "cat"fish, because they are curious also.
@@frederickhargro5153 they are breathing their type of catfish that can breath air
It’s a game of survival... you have to adapt to your environment... this cat surely has bright future because of their diversity in their hunting techniques... all cat big and small are the greatest predators...
bright future.. okay.
Zan yes ...their future and it will pass on to the next generations... they have prey that other big predator didn’t care about... therefore no competition...maybe in the future the group of leopard in area becomes a fishing leopard that only hunting fish...
@@pichchoco7866 I hope they have a bright future. There is only 84 Amur leopards left.
Nobody narrates it better than Sir David Attenborough
jaguars be like:
*HOLD MY BEER*
yeah im just pointing out that jaguars are more capable of hunting in the water, i love both animals specially the leopard.
It’s not a Jaguar
duh i know, oh you innocent mind that is a joke
He knows that. Jaguars have been filmed hunting large caiman in water. So the joke is that while lepoards hunt fish, jaguars hunt reptiles.
Sarban Can’t you understand the joke? What he meant that Jaguars are masters at hunting in the water, and if a jaguar saw this, it’ll get defensive and shit like that, and would want someone to hold their “beer.”
If anyone would be retarded...
I think you already know who i am referring to.
Felines are so determined & savvy. Love em ♥️
Those are huge catfish, and they're on shallow waters?
something doesn't sound right
Steven Carreon
The are probably spawning because otherwise this behavior wouldn't make much sense ;)
The river is drying out and that's why the fish are in shallow water. They're trapped. Also, see how they come to the surface with an open mouth? The water is poor in oxygen and they are trying to breathe
These are sharp tooth catfish, a member of the walking catfish family. They're obligated air breathers and shallow water specialists - very different from the bottom dwelling ambush predators from other lineages
Vincent X how do they get so large in such a small pond? How is there enough food? There was dozens of them seen in the video.
The leopards caught some of the biggest fish that I could ever possibly catch.
As they always say,” third times the charm.”
Probably my favorite cat. Always seems to be the most focused and more apt at adopting to new situations.
That catfish was as big as the leopard, good catch buddy
Such dedication and intelligence.
That catfish looks delicious
Yes you catch dem big ole Cat fish down in dey Bayou and deep fish fry them in a spicy Louisiana Cajun seasoning. Ooh dat good! Make sure you catch some crawfish too. Steam dem in a big old pot and wash it all down with cold beer. Ohh dat good! I got to go hunt me some Gator now for dinner. Bye.
Klo jadi pecel lele pake piring segede apa tuh ya pak
these cats are awesome. they are true hunters.
Leopards are so resourceful and that has been the key to their survival.
I also watched video where leopard learned from elephants how to catch catfish
A cat-mammal, hunting a catfish.
What a sight and an experience to behold.
Host : Mancing Mania ??? ....
Leopard family : MANTAP !!!
🐈🏄
The muscles, the move... just beautiful
0:12 0:32 1:00 1:10 1:27 2:48 Wow so many catfish surfacing on the water. These fish are calling for it, and these leopards will be well fed for the rest of their lives.
ikr they are like " leopard, leopard pls eat me...i m tired of being hunted by crocs" LOL
So cute how that leopard just casually wrings its paws after lol
And holy cow those are huge catfish
So the legendary leopard that was taught by elephant has passed down its skill to its family... 1 in 10 000 years event was caught in camera... Magnificent!
I just love big cats
Magnificent and mysterious creatures 😊
I still love the music in the background ♥️
Name of song ?
Music name =Batch gueye - shape shifters
I'm happy that the MANEDAMAAAAAAHHHHAAAA WAREU is present in this video too
I want to go fishing there! Those fish are huge!
Let's go then babe
This is evolution in action. A new survival behavior is invented/discovered and then passed on through the generations and very slowly over time that group begins to develop physical characteristics to better employ that behavior. Who knows, in thousands of years leopards could be.... probably extinct.
crippledphoenix I think this is considered adaptation rather than evolution. If they were to genetically develop physiological features to make them better at catching cat fish I think that would be considered evolution.
crippledphoenix if the fairytale called evilution was real then the leopard wouldn’t go extinct, it would get better. But unfortunately there are actual scientific laws that refute evilution and point to the Bible. Second law of thermodynamics. Goodnight.
but a leopard is the better version of a past feline that lived thousands(or maybe millions of years ago) our leopard today if, it survived the human race and flourish they will evolved couple of millions of years to the future to be better,larger,or even smarter.
true just like the bear family the black bear may lack in size compare to the kodiak,grizzly, and polar bear.But it is the smartest and the most successful bear(American black bear to be exact)
crippledphoenix this is memetic evolution rather than genetic evolution, it’s a very interesting topic, worth looking up.
Каких же крупных сомов поймал 🙄
У меня даже слюни от аппетита потекли 😋
Надо срочно ехать туда же на рыбалку-голыми руками 😎
1:00 the catfish group be like "haha nub!"
1:15 NUUUBBBB
يرزقه الله بفضله ورحمته
This video never gets old 😍😍😍
catfish for cats
Cat fish, cat catches catfish.
At 2:13 the leopard's like "eww it touched me"
Those are some colossal catfish.
Big Cat Catching The Catfish 😂😹
When going to safari for filming, just have some charcoal and season source, various meat type and fish are available.
Smoked Catfish taste Good😋
Sweet and beautiful voice.
I've been listen to him since I was a child. Good work
In Brazil they hunt aligators under the water.
U mean Jaguars!!!.
This is incredible! It doesn't demand even a fraction of effort to chase down and wrestle a large mammal!
I’m literally jealous!! At 40, I still can’t even even hold a fishing 🎣 rod, which they don’t even need. I love catfish. This ought to be me catching and eating these huge catfish. 😢 😭
3:18 look at the size of that thing, that could feed the whole family
Awwww they're purring
Sri Lanka is one of best location to watch leopard in its habitat
In recent news - a large fluffy kitty eats a tasty fish.
More at 11.
and it was that moment when fish realised aliens do exist😂😂😂
That's why im big fan of leopards good in fishing in climbing and also in the ground 👍👍
Even beautiful Leopards like to eat some fresh Sushi!!!!.
Que animal incrível! Pegou um peixe maior que ele!
That was more exciting than Star Wars movies Lucasfilm production has been produced lately.
Watching paint dry is more exciting than the new Star Wars movies.
I could watch this all day. I don't know why.
Their innovative this leopard family. It's not easy to get prey anymore so they do what they need to feed their bellies. WOW I was blown away when they leaped into the water. That's being cold resourceful!
What a catch!
Looks like easy fishing. They're basically jumping on land wanting to be caught.
I was thinking the same thing. I dont understand what the fish were doing though. Like why were the going to the bank like that
Thanks for sharing this video, it's such an amazing view of the Leopards and I really enjoyed it a lot! Fish on Leopards!
Прямо рай для гепардов, река наполненная рыбой!!!
Cat fishing catfish at night! Ha! Leopards are my favorite I have a ton of Leopard stuffed animal toys lol
Magical soundtrack.., Perfect!
What an absolutely beautiful animal
nyami... big fish.. wow
A cat eating a catfish.
The Guardian make sense
Wakanda Forever
The holy trinity. Leopards fishing, David Attenboroughand's commentary and the Mandatamawaru dude's singing
Thats one huge ass catch! Rewarding night for the cats
I suddenly became hungry
cool, but those fish looks scary.
It's that gosh fangled new young-leopard technology!
The peaceful camping by the leopard so far 😘
The music. 😘
Hillary C something wrong with African music??
Hillary C oh ok and i feel you but MUSIC makes everything better😊😊
Prabhu Pappy yes!!! the music is called Shape Shifters by Batch Gueye on this link here. www.williamgoodchild.com/africas-fishing-leopards you have to click the link because it’s not on TH-cam ☺️☺️☺️
Hillary C it’s all fine and I’m sorry about your depression I hope it gets better 😔😔❤️
shandria henderson thanks a bunch!
Why the catfish still staying near the shore even there's danger lurking already?
JRfoodie lovefun bcoz they are stupids..
Looks like the water is receding and they're stuck in the shallows. Probably not enough oxygen in the water so they're trying to get more
Evil emperor haha
Aether Davila thanks, probably right
First, they aren’t all that bright. Second, these catfish are feeding on insects and other bugs in the grass and near the shore, which keeps them distracted.
Last of all, the catfish are in a big school, which means that an individual fish’s odds of being caught by the leopards are actually rather small-and they instinctively know it.
Esse gato é fantástico, descobriu uma ótima fonte de alimento e não deixou passar...
Worst "Come at me bro" moment by a catfish ever.
Lion=strength
Cheetah= speed
Leopard=stealth
I wish I could get David to narate my life. I can picture it now. 🤔
" And now we can see Mr. Castro fill his belly with pizza. But as he gets full, he'll save some for tomorrow so can have leftovers"
Perseverance to survive. Jungle law
Adapting and evolving right there
The most beautiful of all the big cats imo. One of God's most aesthetically pleasing creations. Also a marvelous hunter, as showcased in this video. Everybody is welcome to their own opinion but I think it's fairly obvious something of such beauty and such an expert hunter was created by design. Thank you to BBC for documenting all these wonderful specimens for us to enjoy. God bless.
Tom tonka that title goes to the amur leopard imo.
Badry cloude leopard are also beautiful
I just looked them both up. Absolutely beautiful. Both of them. Thanks for sharing.
Tom tonka i think every animal is beutiful but lepords are one of my favs
title belongs to male 🦁. with dark mane..
Hunting videos: hares killed, 15% dislike ratio. Fish killed: 4% dislike ratio. Fish not cute enough to bring out vegans in droves? People are so stupid, I swear to the spaghetti monster.
I am pretty sure everytime the catfishes suddenly hear that song ' manduduwaah', they know they are in trouble 😂😂.... And the cheetahs rejoice
😂
The legendary mande dama song!
in animal kingdom the herbivore eats grass, carnivores eat herbivore which is made of meat, and omnivore eats both.
correct me if I'm wrong. I think we, human carnivores should eat vegans.
Carl Austero human are far off from carnivore
egg,milk belongs to what category?
Mind...blown
Carl I like ur thinking. ;)
We are starch eating herbivores. We are not carnivores.
Leopards are so clever.
The catfish are like "ah yes, our new gods demand another sacrifice" 🤣
Lucky cats, enjoying that catfish yum yum 😋
those leopards are having that hunting behaviour be reinforced as heck. Think about it from the leopard's POV. Relatively little effort. All that protein. Yum
Those catfish are thrill seekers getting that close to the edge!
That's one huge fish
Good life for those Leopards..
