LEOPARD ROCK, THE SAVIOUR
It was after eight in the morning when I saw a leopard cub and later its mother. I was driving comfortably to the the leopard sighting, which was seen by other guides at the old airstrip and luckily saw the leopard cup at leopard rock just along the road. Unfortunately the one I was rushing to see had already disppeared ito the thicket and so decided to spend some time with the cub. After spending about 30 minutes with the cub we then decided to leave the sighting and continue to search for its mother, which was seen before. I drove for about 10 minutes and saw the mother of the cub on the road. We watched it briefly and then disappeared.
