Researchers confirm presence of African leopard in southwestern Cameroon

"A Concordia-led research team revealed direct evidence of the presence of the African leopard in the Campo Ma’an Conservation Area, southern Cameroon for the first time in more than 20 years.

The adult leopard was photographed by motion-capture cameras the researchers placed around the conservation area in the summer of 2019 as part of an unrelated study. Leopards were thought to have disappeared from the area, which has been considered a stronghold for this species. The last direct sighting of the leopard (Panthera pardus pardus) was in 2000.

“The camera that caught the image is actually outside of the Campo-Ma’an National Park,” he explains. The leopard’s presence beyond a supposedly protected area suggests to him that animals may not be finding enough prey inside it, they are not as secure as they should be and that their home range may be extending well beyond the national park borders."
