The leopard is the most elusive and secretive of the large felids. They are extremely difficult to trace and locate in the wild. They run up to 58km/h and can leap 6m horizontally and 3m vertically.

Another view of the beautiful female leopard that we saw on our first game drive in Motswari Private Game Reserve.
We spotted an old female on the other side of the dry riverbed yesterday - she was watching us watching her. She is probably the same one that has been wandering through the camp for the last two nights.
We found this beautiful young leopard lying some 10 meters next to the road and quite relaxed. We had this one for ourselves because passing cars did not stop and asked where we were watching at!!
Snow Leopard
Panthera Uncia
A Snow Leopard @ the Bronx Zoo taking a break from scratching to mug for the camera.
This image was captured in the wild in the Kgalagadi.
(You might have noticed, this is the nth upload of this same leopard, but then again, she gave me so much pleasure and time to capture images of her!)
In this photo you can really see how the Leopards markings really help them blend into their surroundings.

Thanks to all who comment or mark as a favorite it really is much appreciated.
Such a gorgeous and elusive snow leopard. She is used to my comings and goings and often times now will look at me or is she watching the deer just over my shoulder?
Leopards are graceful and powerful cats. They are astoundingly strong and are the strongest of the big cats. They are able to climb trees, even when carrying heavy prey, and often choose to rest on tree branches during the day.

They run up to 58km/h and can leap 6m horizontally and 3m vertically. They are also very strong swimmers.

We were lucky to see this beautiful female Leopard resting quietly under some shrubs at quite a distance in late afternoon.
I took this photo about a year ago North of Satara in the Kruger Park.
One early rainy morning we spotted this young male leopard sitting out near the road not far from camp! He was sitting in some bushes and just sat there and stared at us! I love this capture with his tongue out and I think it shows his youth! This photo was taken in the Olare motorogi conservancy in Kenya!
Looking back... she was sitting on the river bench, but I didn't found out, what caught her attention.
(Panthera pardus pardus) B28I9726 Shawu - Kruger NP - South Africa
This leopard was very busy raising its prey to the top of the tree to protect it from lusts. It took us half an hour to approach him, step by step, to give him confidence. With his gaze, he ensured our benevolence. On the other hand, another vehicle arrived noisily and without respect and it fled.
Ce léopard était très occupé à remonter sa proie au sommet de l'arbre pour la mettre à l'abri des convoitises. Nous avons mis une demi heure à l'approcher, étape par étape pour le mettre en confiance. Avec son regard, il s'est assuré de notre bienveillance. Par contre, un autre véhicule est arrivé bruyamment, sans respect et il s'est enfui.
