2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Leopard, Sabi Sands, South Africa
Big Yawn

Species: Leopard | Location: Sabi Sands, South Africa

A big yawn from a big cat. This photo was taken on safari in Sabi Sands, just outside of Kruger National Park in South Africa. We came across this female leopard and her cubs early in the morning. She was still waking up from a long night with the restless cubs, who scampered off just before this photo was taken.
