Tigers Cathay (the one with Radio Collar), TigerWoods and Madonna, newly re-released into the 42 hectare large training camp were hunting, following the gorup of antelop called Blesbok. Cathay however split off and disappeared into a gully. When TigerWoods got quite close to one antelope he started to chase. The antelope crossed over the gully and back in the direction towards where Cathay had been crouching low, not knowing that she has been hiding in the grass waiting for them. Cathay singled out a young antelope-about 8 week old and in a split second, leapt out and cuaght hold of it but it wriggled out of her grasp. The Tiger managed to snatch it again, back and forth a few times. The strange thing was that Cathay (who we thought was TigerWoods initally due to the distance) could have easily killed the small antelope but she did not. She seemed to be playing with it.
