Jackal cheetal Kill

Scavenger. Photographed this jackal trying to take a bite of the cheetal in Kanha, this was a fresh kill mostly by a leopard, it was close to the dirt track used by safari vehicles, so must have left it due to disturbance when one of them arrived. Usually leopards come back once the vehicles and humans are gone. Also many times the leopard kills are taken by tigers, so leopards have to take it into a safe place quickly. photographed with nikon d800 + 200-400vr (manual focus).
