Leopards are Africa’s most elusive large predators, a coveted sighting among the continent’s legendary “Big Five.” Join us for an in-depth look into the secretive lives of these formidable hunters and arguably the most adaptable of all big cats. Expedition Leader Matt Meyer spent extended time with these stealthy felines during a decade of living and working at MalaMala Game Reserve in South Africa, where he tracked wild leopards and witnessed some of their remarkable life events. Matt details the lessons he learned about leopards, including their complex family dynamics, male and female interactions, cute cub behaviors, and demonstrations of brute strength. Listen to Matt’s safari stories about some of the most exciting sightings and close calls he has had over his many years in the field observing wild leopards. You’ll get a grasp of just how impressive these big cats are, and find out how you can contribute to conservation projects aimed at protecting them.
