It took me a while to find the leopard. Was his name Waldo? Β

OK - look to the left side of the main tree trunk where it curls round and starts to flatten out. There is a tiny curl of dark hanging down, like a hook. If you zoom in you will see that is the tail attached to the body above.
Good luck.

Wow yeah, the leopards camouflage is remarkable! I had to double click this image just to get close enough to see where exactly it was, it blended right in with the tree!

Zooming in helps, but one cool cat hidden there!
Many Thanks, Linda.

Many thanks, Robert. Your Amish friend is correct - a zorse is the name of the hybrid - and I'm not surprised at what he said. Zebra are structurally different from horses such that their backs are not able to sustain a rider nor are they readily domesticated. A hybrid is likely to be even more difficult. Also, though they are nice to look at in the wild, and appear very playful and full of energy, they can be quite aggressive to each other and to other animals that get in their way. They bite and have a vicious back leg kick. They are also timid animals compared to wildebeest - caution is the watch word. They will post sentries to look for predators, and if one is spotted then a group of zebra will go watch and stare at the threat - an effective strategy i that big cats need to stalk prey to get close enough to kill.
Cheers

Yes, it certainly helps to zoom in, and once you do see it, your eyes know where to look the next time.
