Can you say Cat Fight?!

This is a legit cat fight though, not a hand slapping, hair pulling girl fight.  In this pride of momma cats and I swear about a dozen cubs one of the momma’s was finishing up eating and whenever anyone came near her gazelle she would get angry.  Well one of the other momma’s didn’t like that she snarled at one of the cubs and they went at it with a full on cat fight. Teeth barring, roaring, angry scurfuffle.

I had a faster shutter speed set up but I wasn’t expecting this burst of activity so unfortunately the shutter speed I had selected out wasn’t fast enough to properly capture the moment. Here is a quick capture of one of the moments (the lady upside down is the one who wasn’t happy that one of the cubs got snarled at).
