These pictures were taken of Wahoo, a permanent resident at Africat. Wahoo could not be released because he was too 'tame'- that is, as tame as a powerful male leopard can get! He was raised by people as a cub, but became too dangerous when he reached maturity. His name comes from the call mother leopards make to their cubs.
The picture below is one of my favourites, because it is just so impressively frightening. For once, I think the red-eye really adds to the photo!
