African Leopards

When the Most Elusive of the Big Five Changes its Spots

The wild is a strange place. You can spend years searching for something, always missing it by inches or seconds. Years hearing how everyone else has seen the most elusive creature of the African bushveld. You’ll stop and stare at every branch, discoloration or hanging vine hoping to be lucky enough to just catch a glimpse of a leopard in the wild. And then the next week? 3 of them will just wander up to your car in broad daylight.

This was the reality for Wild Frontiers director Debbie Addison on one of her trips to the Serengeti. Not one, not two, but three leopards. A mother and her almost fully grown cubs.
But, the best was yet to come. The mother brazenly wandered up to the car and Debbie was able to snap this smiling face as the leopard peered up towards her. What a stroke of luck! One moment that even left our guides awestruck.

We at Wild Frontiers specialize in trips to East Africa, with 3 of our own camps in the Serengeti, our own fleet of specially designed Safari Vehicles and the best guides in Africa. Currently, we’re running Ladies Only Safaris and a Serengeti Free Night Special so you can make 2017 the year you finally visit the Serengeti.
