We know leopards are the connoisseurs of treetop dining. They prefer to hoist their kills into the trees and well out of the way of other predators who might be inclined to steal it (are you listening, hyenas?). Their hoisting prowess is impressive – a large male can lift a carcass weighing two (and sometimes three!) times his own body weight. But we reckon this guy was a little too ambitious, no? Spoiler alert: it all goes very wrong at roughly 0:50.
