African Leopard

The African leopard (or Panthera pardus pardus) is the nominate subspecies of the leopard, native to Central and Southern Africa. It has a slender build with an elegant head. The base coat colour ranges from yellow to dark golden and is covered in small, tightly spaced rosettes that turn into black spots towards the lower body, face, and tail tip. The underside and inside of the legs are white. The African leopard is sexually dimorphic, with males being larger and heavier than females.

African Spurred Tortoise

The African spurred tortoise (or Centrochelys sulcata), also known as the sulcata tortoise, is the largest tortoise of continental Africa, and third-largest tortoise in the world. It inhabits the semi-arid savannahs and shrublands of the Sahel and Sahara. The oval carapace is brown to beige in colour, the scutes darken towards the edges and show grows rings. Superficially, males and females look alike except for slight differences in the scutes on the plastron (the 'belly' of the carapace), though males can achieve greater sizes than females.
