So awesome!

 

And to think that some farmers slaughter these beautiful creatures as they consider them "pests".

Cool story. I wonder what they will find when they check the camera again in April 2016?

Cannot tell you what a great thrill this is to know that these guys are still out there and increasing their numbers ! So cool.

Not in the Cape, not any more. Basically the Cape Leopard Trust have managed over the last decade or so, to convince just about the whole farming community from the Cederberg all the way to the Southern Cape, to leave the leopards alone. Sure, they still come to grief now and then with a crazy farmer here and there, but that is (wonderfully) now a rare occasion.
