Innocent Baby Duck Walks Up To A Leopard, Gets Caught, Then Performs An Epic Escape (Video)

Nature… is amazing. Animals are so interesting to us - their patterns of behavior, their desires, their needs. A lot of what animals do is predictable - we understand their instincts and their needs. And yet… every once in a while, animals step out of the pattern and do something unexpected, and often times, hilarious. Like the time a tiny turtle chased a giant lion from its waterhole. Or that one giant fish that has a 30-year-long friendship with a diver and annoys him while he works. Or that bear who repeatedly robbed the same gas station, stealing candy bars. 

We love animals because they keep on surprising us with how awesome they can be. And this couple - this little duckling and this giant leopard - both surprised us. The ducking innocently walked up to this leopard, and, as you would expect, the leopard caught it. What you wouldn't expect is just how gently the leopard held the tiny duckling in its mouth. And you also wouldn't expect the duckling to somehow escape its jaws - unharmed - in the most epic way possible.
