Sequence: Hyena theft of a Leopard kill

Hyena over Impala carcass Hyena standing guard One eats while another stands guard Gnawing on a bone It's an Impala (the leg, that is)
Cape Vulture coming in to land These hyena are jittery Cape Vultures patiently waiting their turn Hunger overcomes nervousness Still very nervous
The reason for the hyenas' nervousnous, a leopard peering through the bush The leopard emerges to reclaim its kill Leopard reclaiming its kill Leopard reclaiming its kill Leopard dragging its kill into the bush
Last glimpse of the leopard A hooded vulture, hoping to get a share of the action In the end, the hyena took back the carcass
