Think it is a leopard at Edinburgh Zoo

The leopard approaches...

Sadly one sees the fence and the colors are strange...

She didnt like being watched while she ate

"Juammane"-"Tuesday" named by the local guides for the day he was regularly seen after the first encounter .

With only 30 - 40 remaining in the wild, the Amur leopards are listed in international, federal and regional levels as critically endangered and are in immediate danger of extinction.

The first of my pictures from the Big Cats photography day I attended yesterday at the Wildlife Heritage Foundation in Kent.

Not open to the public the WHF is a UK based charity working hard to ensure that the big cat species of the world are protected from extinction. Based in Kent UK they are an active partner in the European Endangered Species Breeding Programmes (EEP), as well as setting up education programmes for the people that share the habitats of these wonderful cats. The WHF is also raising awareness and funding for big cat projects around the world.

This is one of the four leopards they currently have living with them. I will be uploading more of my pictures shortly but this is a taster of whats to come.

You can read a report from my day by visiting my photography blog LINK

This chap was showing an interest in the kids running about, not sure if it was curiosity or just lunch time :-)

Snow Leopard (Uncia uncia)

The snow leopard is classified as a member of the order Carnivora (Carnivores) and is a member of the family Felidae. It is classified as an endangered species due to an estimated population of no more than 2500 snow leopards and the fact that it has no subpopulation numbering more than 250 mature leopards. Snow leopards can be found in eastern Asia

The colour wasn't too good on this shot as it was a bit overcast, so I tried to make it look a bit smarter with B&W.

Didn't want to waste it because I liked the pose and it was looking right at me

This was taken at Twycross Zoo, though I don't know if they have the leopard anymore.

This guy was at the Houston Zoo. He was hurt but he had no problem letting us take pictures of him. The only think I don't like is the fence in the foreground but there's nothing I can do about that.
