Lion Catches Fleeing Antelope in Mid-Air Ambush [VIDEO]

A leaping lion catches an antelope in this incredible mid-air ambush caught on camera in South Africa’s Shamwari Game Reserve.

In the clip below, a pair of lions perched in tall grass on the top of a ridge ambush an unsuspecting antelope. When the antelope sees the first lioness, it makes a daring leap backwards over the cliff.

Not ready to let her dinner escape, lioness number two makes a bold leap over the cliff to catch the fleeing antelope in a mid-air attack.
