This leopard is resting in a tree after a successful hunt, having just fed on the cadaver hanging in the tree behind (an antelope, not in frame). If you look closely you can still see the slight red coloration of its fur from the kill, particularly on the left paw and and cheek.

We saw this leopard on horseback while riding during the day, and came back to see it in the evening on a jeep - only to find that it had just made a kill!
