I read this one and my thoughts went immediately to a short film I saw on the internet a few years back. It was a handheld camera that was recording the happenings where a leopard was being cajoled on the end of a catch stick into a cage in the back of a truck. The big black guy was there being rough with the cat and the cage didn't get completely nor properly closed. The large fellow got in the cab and began to roll up the window. The leopard got halfway into the cab and fired up the Arkansas cultivator and shredded him in record time.

Seeing that speed and power gave me a respect for leopards and all other big cats that will never diminish. I am sorry the folks on the film crew had not seen that footage as well...wild means unpredictable.
