Photo by Pete McBride pedromcbride | Leopards are one of the “Big Five” African mammals, a term coined by big-game hunters and now commonly used in safaris. Lions, black rhinoceroses, elephants, and African buffalo make up the rest. Illegal poaching is a major problem for these animals. Engaging local communities in conservation is key, and nrt_kenya has helped pave the way. In honor of Earth Month, let's show some extra respect to our feathered, scaled, and furry friends and for the planet we all share.
