1. Camera Traps/Leoperazzi

We bring wildlife to the world. Our main prey are leopards, but we also capture other wildlife animals like kudu, bush buck, bush pig, wildebeest, rabbits, birds, brown hyenas, African civets, serval, caracal, jackal, mongoose species and so far we have managed to collect altogether 45 mammal species of which 21 were predator species.

The most amazing of it all was that we managed to collect ID’s on 18 different leopards. On 3 adult males and 3 adult females we collected an extensive amount of pictures and data.

Our prey usually moves in areas where only legs or four paws can take you, and we know our two-legged friends can only move on two-wheels, on four-wheels, in four-wheels or flying with big green birds. Thus we capture leopards on memory cards and paint the picture for you.

We assist wildlife research in various ways, we represent the true colours of untouched wild life, the density of wild life in an area, the territorial behaviors of animals and their condition.

We have managed to dispel the myth that game ranches are only good for conservation and cattle ranches only bad.

We actually managed to collect a much wider variety and wealth of species on the cattle ranches than most of the game ranches. We have also managed to prove that the leopard plays a very important part in the regulation of other predators in a system.

You should see the jackal and most other predators high tailing out of an area when these big cannons arrive.

For some reason only the honey badger seems to have a “don’t care” attitude as he shows no respect for the presence of leopard. Maybe that is why people say “ so taai soos ‘n ratel”

What does a Leoperazzi look like?

The last few months on the camera traps appear to have been insignificant in terms of information collected as to what the leopards have been up to. Although this is actually quite the opposite, the appearance of leopards on the scene, allowed for a bit better understanding of these elusive creature's ways of operation. There is actually enough news that we do not know where to start. In fact, the festive season leisure mood was never able to overcome us, as it seems as if the leopards decided that the humans are on holiday so they can have a ball game! Well, they did not keep tabs on Antons dedicated pursuing temperament.
