Mammals of Lake Nakuru National Park
Female Leopard
On an afternoon drive with my family in Lake Nakuru National Park, I saw this female leopard walking in the tall grass. We followed her for about 10 minutes as she was quite tolerant of the car. When she crossed the road, I saw that her teats were swollen, as she probably had cubs nearby. I went back several times but could not find her again.
