Phinda have been running a 10 year project with the Leopards which is why you see this big male with a tracking collar. According to our tracker the information they have gathered is immense. Here's hoping it is put to good use protecting these magnificent animals.
Got to see the two snow leopards at the zoo out and about for once! Haven't been since they got the ale and usually the female was hiding in some spot that allowed you to only see her paw or nose.
The Amur leopard is considered to be one of the most critically endangered big cats in the world, with roughly 30-40 individuals remaining in the wild. Habitat loss and hunting (for trophies and use in traditional medicines) are the biggest threats to Amur leopards in the wild.
The Amur leopard has been a protected species in Russia since 1956, but poaching is still a problem. Conservation efforts in the wild for these animals include anti-poaching patrols, customs control, fighting forest fires, environmental education programmes and working closely with local communities.

Le village de Franschhoek (partie française), bordé par les terres viticoles du Cap d'Afrique du Sud, est connu comme étant la capitale gastronomique et œnologique du pays. Galeries et boutiques d'antiquités emplissent les rues bordées d'arbres, et des vignobles, établis depuis plus de 300 ans, embellissent les collines aux abords de la ville. Les activités locales vont des circuits œnologiques à la pêche à la truite, en passant par la randonnée. Le musée Huguenot Memorial Museum rend hommage aux premiers colons de la ville, qui ont fui la persécution religieuse en France.
the big cats were of course the main attraction. sadly it's a lot harder to get good pictures through bars, so i just don't have that many decent ones.
This photo was taken at the Granby Zoo near Montreal Canada. There was only a 1cm glass that seperated that cat from me.
