KTP Leopard: Modiegi

Unread post by peterpiper »

Modiegi in Setswana which means One who delays.

Very much later when it was nearly dark, the mother appeared with both cubs suddenly and crossed the river. I could not get a decent pic of the three of them but here she is with one of the cubs. This was about 5 minutes before the gates closed.

Lovely sighting Peterpiper :thumbs_up:
The wonderful picture of the cub under the tree is the same cub as KG posted in the Recent SIghtings thread...L-12 (new name Sazisi).

The second picture is Rooiputs (female) on the left and the second cub, Modiegi. This is the first picture of the second cub i've seen. :clap:
