Lumka on the Move: A Leopard Mom’s Moment

Our parting shot - as promised!

Here’s some special footage of Lumka, a leopard mother of two cubs, captured by a motion-sensor camera trap. In this clip, Lumka leaves her playful little ones safely tucked away in the forest while she heads off to hunt.

Because sometimes, even leopard moms need a moment to themselves.

Wishing you a safe and restful long weekend from all of us at Grootbos Foundation.

Freedom Day reminds us of how far South Africa has come in 31 years of democracy - and how important it is to keep working towards a better future for all.
