What will come to your mind when you hear of a fight between a stray dog and a wild leopard? The answer would obviously be the victory of the wild leopard. Between a dog and a leopard, it goes without saying that the leopard is the more dangerous animal on any given day. A video of a dramatic fight between the two creatures, however, disproves this theory.

A dog is seen sleeping on a roadway when a leopard tries to fight it in a video that has gone viral on social media. The dog, on the other hand, maintains its position by barking at the leopard nonstop. The animals lock gazes, and the standoff concludes with the leopard returning to the wild, leaving the dog unhurt.

The video looks like it was shot in a wildlife sanctuary or a national park by some tourist while on a safari. The video quickly went viral since the time it was shared on social media.

Many individuals have commended the dog’s “assurance” and “bravery” in the face of adversity. Surprisingly, several individuals speculated that the leopard may have abandoned the dog due to the presence of humans.

Some of the comments on the video read, “If that leopard had been hungry it would have been MORE aggressive than this,” “I strongly believe Courage isn’t the absence of fear it’s the courage of facing the Fear”.
