Leopard in Kabini

Leopard in Kabini - Dr Alaganantham's Photos

May 2010 - Nagarhole park, Kabini.

a leopard sauntered across the path in front of our jeep in a very

On seeing the photos, Mr Ravi Chellam of ATREE, responded
Based on the photo-data base we have, we have been able to identify this male leopard as NHL-225, whom we first photo-trapped in March 2008 and also have had subsequent photo-captures. He seems to be a fairly tolerant and very visible leopard as we have photos of him from at least one other tourist.


I thought that was interesting - a leopard with a personality quirk?!
