Leopards of Yala - No sightings for the Last two years

Female
Ākāsa Chethiya 2:2 Female (2016)
Akasa Chethiya 2:2 female cub was first photographed in August 2016, at the Akasa Chethiya road with her mother, the Akasa Chethiya 2:3 female.
Female
Kotābendi Wewa 1:2 Female [YF 24/Sage]
Kotābendi Wewa 1:2 female is a fairly confident female, who was originally photographed at Kotābendi Wewa, hence its designation. In January 2018, she was seen with an injured jaw and a half tail, which was most probably caused due to a wild boar attack. Nevertheless, she still managed to raise her two male cubs up to adulthood, proving herself as an ideal mother figure worthy of respect.
Male
Medha Pāra 2:3 Male [YM 21/J]
With all these impressive achievements, there is not a shadow of a doubt that the Medha Paara 2:3 male is the one true “King of the North”. Truly a force to be reckoned with, this fine specimen of a leopard was first sighted by our team in early 2013 (it was about four years old at the time).
