Answer 1

Wow, thats amazing!

Answer 2

Yep. Sometimes they do. There are a lot of youtube videos that show similar situations. Although, a lot of the time, these attacks end up in the Leopards undoing.

Answer 3

Yes sometimes that happens. When you have two top predators in one area in close proximity a battle usually ensues. In most cases the crocodile would win the fight due to sheer size and power, especially when it is in its own element of water.

Usually large predators try to avoid one another as they realize what one can do to the other but when it comes to protecting young, food, or territory a fight could be inevitable. Jaguars and anacondas sometimes go at it as do sharks and crocodiles in Australia. Mountain lions, bears, wolves, and wolverines tend to have unhappy meetings in their natural habitat. That is some amazing footage you have there.
