Sloth bear tries to scare off male leopard

Watch how a sloth bear and a male leopard encounter each other in Wilpattu National Park, Sri Lanka. The sloth bear tries to intimidate the male leopard numerous times but the male leopard doesn’t show any sign of fear and simply walks off. Neither wanted to physically engage one another as they’re formidable opponents for each other. This is a case of mutual respect, which isn’t always the case in India as Indian sloth bears are bigger than Sri Lankan sloth bears. Subscribe for more content:
