BCC EP:82 A face-off at dusk confronting a west country leopard
b'
Clare met a black leopard watching her from a ditch in a Somerset lane back in 1993. Her family\\u2019s dogs and horses had been spooked at the time, sensing a possible predator nearby.
In a wide-ranging discussion including the wonders of the Zanzibar leopard and the search for the supposedly lost Thylacine, Clare discusses her experience working with leopards, puma and lynx at a zoo, and lessons she learnt about the traits of these cats for their behaviour in the wild in Britain.\\xa0
