Description A well balanced Black Leopard, also known as the Panther. Shot, obviously, though glass. I hate glare. Just so you all know. Anyways, I thought the lighting was nice on this beautiful big cats coat. © 2008-Current.

I used to go there every yr..but haven't had a chance to go in a while. My husband hasn't been there since he was really little so I am hoping to plan a day trip there this yr.
