From an amazing successful hunt by Mum ＂Namunyak". after waiting 6 days for the perfect hunting strategy, my guide Martin and I also waited patiently for 3 days to capture the whole drama that took 30+ mins to finally subdue this big male! Bringing down big male Impala's is her speciality.
Mum and her two 5 mth old cubs dined well this day.

Fabulous shot, and an amazing movie. I have to admit feeling a little sorry for the Impala. Such is life and death in the wild world, I guess. Glad the cubs got a good meal.
