Cheetas and Wahoo, The Leopard

Wayne, today owner of Okonjima reserve, found barely born leopard almost seventeen years ago. He safed his life as he would become easy prey. They lived, ate and sleeped together for two years. Wayne suddenly got sick and had to go to hospital. When he got back, leopard was not comfortable with his presence anymore, so they couldn't live together anymore. Leopard became a bit aggresive towards people as it should be. Since then they've been separated but leopard lives in big reserve now, owned by Wayne. Leopard's name is Wahoo and he is a beautiful animal.

I found this reserve coincidentally on the way south to WIndhoek. I just wanted to see some cheetas. More about Okonjima reserve and Africat foundation here.
