Photo by @FransLanting // Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there! // Here’s a famous female leopard named Half-Tail, grooming her cub named Zawadi. Half-Tail was one of the first leopards in Kenya’s Maasai Mara to tolerate people and vehicles near her. That’s how she became known as an individual leopard. She became a star when the BBC started following her for its “Big Cat Diary” television programs. My friend and colleague, wildlife photographer Jonathan Scott, was a presenter for that series, and he knew her very well. Thanks to Half-Tail, millions of people got a better sense of what it’s like to be a leopard. She got her name because she lost a portion of her tail in a baboon attack. Half-Tail raised her cub, Zawadi, in public, and that in turn helped Zawadi herself to be more accepting of people in vehicles. In this image, Zawadi is only a few months old. Follow me @FransLanting for a post that shows Zawadi many years later.
