Description

‘Ndzutini’ means ‘one who likes shade’. She was born in December 2018 to mother Tiyani, and was sired by Hukumuri. She apparently loved to lie under the vehicles, when she was young.

Unlike most other female Leopards, Ndzutini was forced to leave her natal area in search of a territory. She ventured to the Manyeleti and even to the Orpen area then returned to her natal area in the Sabi sands. But then she left the area again. Since then she hasn't been seen. Hopefully she has established herself somewhere in the Kruger.

Unframed and all shipping, tax and tariffs will be the responsibility of the buyer.
