    South Luangwa National Park, Zambia
    On our last night before flying back to Lusaka, we saw a leopard on the night safari. Soon thereafter, a second leopard joined the scene. This seemed to be a very rare event. It is even possible that we saw three leopards as we lost sight of the first leopard before seeing the other two, but in retrospect, I think the driver just moved to the spot on the road where he expected it to emerge.

    Seen in the middle of the road, and then observed hiding in some brush for a few seconds before it ran off. A rare sighting here.
