Leopard on the loose in Kruger National Park picnic site, Mzansi floored 

Africa is known for its rich heritage and culture, but one thing foreigners reference when they write stories about the continent is the wild animals.

This time, one of the Big Five animals wanted to chitchat beyond the boundary of a fence and escape its cage. An energetic leopard sprinted to the Kruger's picnic site and caused a swift panic.

Visitors reacted in a fight-or-flight mode as they tried to escape the bloodthirsty leopard's gaze. They tried to calm each other down by reassuring themselves that staying calm was the solution.

An employee captured the incident clearly on his mobile phone and uploaded it on TikTok with the caption:

"Wooh the leopard, is now getting dangerous."
