Yes, the snow leopard is in the near centre of the image. It helps to know that he’s brown before you start scouring the snow for a white animal.

I found the leopard after opening the image in a new tab and enlarging...

Had a funny thing happen last week with our brownish stripped cat:

Every year we have at least one doe give birth to a fawn in our field (lots of trees & long grass and all day shade on our east field).

Last week we were walking our cats (in the afternoon with cocktails) and our leopard/bobcat looking cat wandered into the central part of the field where we keep it mowed for weed control...one of the weeds smells like catnip so ‘Lulu’ headed there and was sniffing away.

About 30 years to the east a doe and her fawn were bedded down in the shade of some aspens when she noticed the cat. She got up and walked to 15 yards from the cat (who was not paying any attention just sniffing away) who just happened to be facing the doe.

The deer stamped its front foot then after a few more seconds bleated/hissed at the cat!

I picked up the cat and we headed to the west field on the other side of the house and the two deer eventually moved to the neighbors property...

Animas are smart!
