From the most bizarre to mundane things, what becomes the fodder for memes is hard to gauge, nonetheless the results are always quite interesting.
As the natural world is full of surprises, the photo going viral shows a moment between the predator and its prey, a baby impala, forming an unusual bond.
In case you’re wondering what’s the story behind the epic shot, it’s not a moment when the predator was ‘befriending’ its prey.
In a blog post ecounting the memorable sighting, the photographer identified the leopardess as Nkanyi and detailed how the hunt unfolded, as the predator showed a behaviour he hadn’t seen before.
He recalled that although the young prey did try to escape many times — taking the wildcat by surprise — in the long run, it failed to save itself.
Now, as the striking image is going viral once again, people on the internet are giving it a meme treatment and coming up with apt captions, showing off their knack for dark humour.
