Notes: |
|
Driving south from Nxabega we came upon a female leopard and two cubs close to a group of elephants. The two cubs had climbed a tree to get a look at the elephants. On our arrival the mother and one cub quickly moved out of sight, but the other cub switched its attention from the elephants to us. It scrutinised us thoroughly, with no apparent nervousness, and for some considerable time. |
