It was amazing to see this from about 15' away...we stopped shooting for a bit to allow for some video and the audio of the bones being crunched is cringe worthy!

Thanks Harsha...the realities of the natural world as you know so well...one dies so one can live...Darwinism at it's finest.

You've had your fair share of cool sightings on your many trips, so for this encounter to be one of your favorites is really saying something.
Powerful image for sure my friend... well done. 
Kirk
Thanks Kirk...the actually devouring of the impala was really secondary to what played out minutes earlier with the multiple predators all vying for a seat at the table...the queen of the jungle obviously took home the prize.

The picture tells the story Eric. Maybe not always easy to see but Nature does just fine taking care of itself without us interfering.
Amazing close up!
Karl
Thanks Karl.. you are correct my friend.....the brutality of nature is not something all of us want to see either in person or in photos but it is part and parcel of the natural world and despite our feelings it will continue.

Mind blowing image....!!
...as the head literally explodes...It is not easy observing and photographing something die and be consumed but these cats just do what they do to survive and if statistics are any indicator...they are not doing well at all.
