Highland Wildlife Park HWP 2014

[zooboy28]

...the HWP is to get a pair of Snow Leopards and an off show breeding area for Amur Leopards

I'm not familiar with HWP - do they already have Amur Leopards on display? If not, why is there no provision for an on-display exhibit?

Highland WP currently has no Amur leopards on display, they've been in the pipeline for numerous years.

One of the snow leopards will be the female from marwell.

HWP hasn't has Amur leopards before, but RZSS has at Edinburgh.

The main reason for off-show is so any cubs have minimum contact with people, to aid a future re-wilding programme
