Extinct' leopard captured in Bangladesh

A critically endangered clouded leopard cub has been captured by tribes people in a remote area of Bangladesh. Many conservationists thought the leopards were actually extinct in the country.

Mohammed Islam from the Wildlife Trust of Bangladesh says the find is "exciting and hugely significant".  Clouded leopards are solitary, nocturnal and arboreal cats. They are also one of the least studied leopards because of their secretive and timid nature.

The Trust is now trying to release the cub.

Walk with Lions

A local tour company has introduced its ‘Walk with Lions’ tour in a nature reserve north of Pretoria.  The itinerary includes tea or coffee on arrival, a 40-minute talk on lion behaviour, a 40-minute walk with the lions to the reserve’s dam, python display, feeding and interacting with the lion cubs and a light lunch.

Guests will also be able to find out more about these animals, learn why they are at the reserve and why they get taken out for walks.
