A nail-biting video of a leopard trying to attack wild dogs has surfaced on the internet and is going crazy viral. Captured by photographer John Fabiano in Kruger National Park, South Africa, the video showed a leopard approaching four wild dogs that were sleeping in an unbothered state under the sun.
Already curious to know what happened next? Hint: Not what you might be thinking.
It was around 7.30 am when the photographer stopped by to take photos of the sleeping wild dogs. He took time to take pictures and was present at the spot when he noticed a leopard behind a bush with its eyes set on the dogs.
The leopard then began to move towards the dogs. It moved closer without making any sound, as the dogs lay completely unaware. The leopard carefully observed the sleeping dogs with the probable aim of attacking them.
Just then, the tables turned as one wild dog lifted its head and saw the leopard a few meters from it. Yes, the wild dogs chased the leopard away.

“Love that the dogs went after the Leopard after waking up. No chill at all,” wrote another user. “Honestly, the wild dogs were quite lucky that it wasn't a lion. Quite a bold move to sleep in the open when there are bigger predators lurking around,” another comment reads.
