The extraordinary scene was
captured by photography student
Casey Gutteridge at the Santago
Rare Leopard Project in
Hertford shire.

Casey was
astounded by the mouse's
behavior. He said: "I have no idea
where the mouse came from - he
just appeared in the enclosure
after the keeper had dropped in
the meat for the leopard."
"He didn't take any notice of the
leopard, just went straight over to
the meat and started feeding.

But the leopard was pretty
surprised, she bent down and
sniffed the mouse and flinched a
bit like she was scared. In the
meantime the mouse just carried
on eating like nothing had
happened."

She gave him a shove with her
nose, but even a gentle shove
does not deter the little creature
from
getting his fill.

"It was amazing, even the keeper
who had thrown the meat into
the enclosure was shocked, he
said he'd never seen anything like
it before."

Even wild animals behaves very good show mercy sometimes...
