A Strange Pairing
This photo captures what seems to be an unusual friendship: a leopard perched on a buffalo’s back. It defies the typical rules of the animal kingdom, suggesting a rare symbiotic relationship akin to that between a buffalo and an oxpecker.
Alternatively, the less fantastical but more likely explanation is that the leopard is simply in the background, with the buffalo closer to the camera. Nonetheless, the camera’s angle created a fascinating optical illusion, making it look like these two very different animals are companions, resulting in a humorous and intriguing snapshot.
