Anyone who has truffled, trawled, plied and picked their way across Olare Conservancy’s fertile plains and luggas will be familiar with this titled predator. A brief conversation across a few Bush Camp guides with 50,000 game drives plus between them confirms that this is the best leopard they have worked with. Her cubs fortunately follow her altruistic example. She mates and hopefully has more of these priceless offspring: this is excitement off the faunal scale.
Viewing leopard cubs anywhere is fame viewing from the highest table, when that ‘table’ is polished granite it adds a lustre to an already impossibly high spotted carat value …. enter Nalangu and her cub in Mara North, a few minutes from Kicheche Mara Camp. We have been lucky enough to have some of this recorded, thanks, Henry Tsang, Ludo Rey and our own Jimmy Tinka. Spot of the week. Literally.
