The new leopard and tiger was captured from a helicopter during an aerial survey of wild ungulates at the Land of the Leopard. It has been reported Telegram– channel of the protected area.
The “identity” of another previously known leopard was also determined.
A new tiger has been spotted. Analysis of lines as unique as fingerprints on the skin showed that this person had not been recorded by camera traps before.
In the wilderness of the taiga, somewhere at once two leopards were noticed. One of them is new. The second individual is a secretive female Leo 158F. It fell through the lens of one of the camera traps when it was last seen in the summer of 2021. The quality of the photos did not allow him to assess his condition. The helicopter images showed the biologists a bigger picture.
The female looks healthy and active. She was seen “on a date” with a sexually mature man.
