FEATURE - Leopard benutzt Babyäffchen als Köder
This is the moment a leopard used a cute baby vervet monkey as bait.
Thomas Retterath, an amateur wildlife photographer from Germany, documented the uncomfortable scenes as the big cat toyed with the small primate.
The caterer captured the incident in the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
No adult monkeys took the bait, and by the time Thomas and his tour group had to leave to get their flight, the baby monkey was still alive in the ‘care’ of its capture.
Thomas explains: “It had rained that morning and the safari had been very uneventful. Suddenly our guide heard nagging and shouting from monkeys in the bush.
“Quickly the cause of the theatre was identified: This leopard got hold of a vervet monkey baby, probably the mother had "lost" it in the excitement - vervet monkeys carry their offspring under their bellies, the babies cling to their mother. Instead of killing the baby quickly, the cat played with him.
“The cat occasionally let go of the little one, only to bully him again a short time later. She bit down just so hard that the monkey was not hurt. She took it in her mouth, as if she were transporting her own offspring. The behaviour was very much like when a house cat catches a mouse.
“The cat apparently used the tiny one as bait in the intention that one of the adults would become careless and start a "rescue operation". We watched this spectacle for 30 minutes. None of the monkeys got cocky and we left the "crime scene", because we had to get to our bush flight.
“The cat had not killed the monkey by then.”
