Male seen while guiding clients for Birding Africa. Time of day was 10h45 - 10h55. I was alerted to the possible presence of a leopard after observing a pair of Verreaux's Eagles dive-bombing something. The leopard urine scent marked three times while walking in a southeasterly direction, and eventually disappeared as it crossed over the top of the mountain. The Cape Leopard Trust identified the male as Boland Male 12 (BM12), also known as "Scott". |
