Leopard with Cubs; Serengeti National Park

A mother leopard with kittens lays under a palm tree and next to a creek.

Just One More Step . . .

No, I wasn’t on foot in front of this mother leopard with cubs.  I was safely shooting from a safari vehicle.  This mother leopard was at the edge of a stream that was shaded and protected by trees and other vegetation.  We came back a day or two later to find her gone and that palm tree lying where she had been.  I don’t know what happened, but hope she and her young got away safely.
