HellooOOoo

Yes there are leopard in Addo, but as far as I know, there has only been one confirmed sighting of a leopard. I think it was on a night drive, it dashed across the riad and the ranger managed to positively ID it before it vanished. Rangers also often come across signs of leopard (scratch marks on trees, spoor, kills, etc.), but there are no pics of leopard in Addo by tourists....yet.... They are becoming more common in the Eastern Cape due to their introduction into many of the private reserves in the area, they should start to spill over into Addo, so hopefully sightings will start in the next few years. But as far as I know, Addo (SANParks) has not introduced any.

Aardvark in KNP, yes! Someone has pics of one being released by rangers after being caught in a snare near Croc Bridge, maybe one of the mods can find it Aardwolf in KNP, yes, but I don't think anyone has photographic evidence of them in Kruger, but where there are antheaps there are aardwolf's...generally!

Could be wrong, but this is my 2c worth!

I was looking close to this thread.
Thanks Imberbe...and JJ for posing the Question in question!
