Got to see this kill from start to finish. Eventually catching up to the mum and her cubs. A cloudy day so had to crank up the iso in order to get the action

Speaking of which, do these animals all hunt the same?  I mean these large preditor cats, how they hunt the same?

All completely different. Lions and cheetah are similar in that they chase down their prey. Lion use more strategy then speed. Leopards are more likely to use stealth and pounce
