Leopard cubs have no chance of survival when taken by an adult baboon without the protection of their mother.

Even though baboons take careful care of them, the leopard cub still cannot survive more than a few hours without its mother.

According to Latest Sightings, this heartbreaking scene was accidentally recorded by 44-year-old Paul Wood while exploring the Pilanesberg wildlife reserve in South Africa.

Previously, these unlucky leopard cubs were caught by a baboon while their mother was out hunting.

After catching the baby leopard, the adult baboon suddenly took care of the other person like his own child. However, its clumsiness caused the leopard cub to die miserably.

In addition, without mother’s care or milk supply, the cubs had to die. Meanwhile, the baboon still carelessly carried the baby leopard away from its nest

In the end, all the cubs died when they fell into the hands of the clumsy baboon.
