First Sighting

4th February 2018 4.10pm

  • 4th February 2018 at 4.10pm one Leopard between Maradanmaduwa and the first culvert on Maha Wewa road. N 08.37959, E 080.08483

    Upon examination of its spot pattern I recognized it as the Maradanmaduwa Leopard 3 listed under Leopards of Wilpattu – Guest section. This is my first sighting of this female cub. She is now around one year and is usually seen with her sister and mother, Maradanmaduwa Female 1 (MMFC 1). Her first litter was two male cubs and this is her second. The leopard was sleeping on a high up branch of a Kumbuk Tree. I named it Maradanmaduwa Female 2 (MMFC 2) (with guide Tissa Ratnayake)
