Look at this fantastic pounce by a snow leopard! We often get videos of athleticism in domestic cats, rarely for bigger ones. You can see how that huge tail helps counterbalance the leap in mid-air. This is a great example of enrichment that encourages natural behavior, too.
“Oh what a scary predator! You really scared Mama! Good job!”
I can’t stop laughing at this
Thing is she’s doing this to encourage her cub, you can tell she knows they’re there bc she looks over there before getting up and pretending to looks somewhere else, jumping when the kid tries to scare her
