A leopard in captivity at Zelda’s Guest Farm, our campsite at Gobabis.

 

The most secretive and elusive of the large carnivores, the leopard is also the shrewdest. Pound for pound, it is the strongest climber of the large cats and capable of killing prey larger than itself. The dark, irregular circles of its coat is called "rosettes."

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.

On the trail of the Prince of Cats - The Leopard at the Yala National Park in Sri Lanka. Yala has one of the highest concentration of leopards per square kilometer and it is not uncommon to see around 3-5 Leopard on a 2 night - 3 day safari. Apart from Leopard, Sloth Bear, Asian Elephant, Jackal and several other mammal species can also be seen here. For more information, please visit www.jetwingeco.com
