Cheetal from Bharatpur

[Sabyasachi Patra]

After posting a predator shot, I thought let me share an image of the prey. Though the tiger from Bharatpur has been relocated to sariska, these cheetals are often hunted by packs of village dogs. Jackals are other predators, always optimistic and attacking whenever they find a fawn or an adult trapped in bog.

Canon EOS 1D Mark IV, Canon EF 400mm f2.8 L IS USM, EF 2xII TC, ISO 1000, f5.6, 1/400, Full frame image.

Cheers,

I like this. The pose is good, and good that you got the eye well. The BG is nice too.

Nice image. The chital looks healthy and busy with its snack. Would have been better if the mouth was not hidden. Nevertheless a nice image.
