Thanks Nisha. I thought it was from another zoo in the UK from how it was written but I couldn't think where had them apart from Chester.

Although saying that I now remember reading something about Drayton Manor getting a breading pair of Leopards a few years ago. Do you know if this was this successful and is Zuri one of the pair?

Chester don't have Leopards as far as I am aware?!

No, they don't. The individual steveuk99 is talking about is the black female Jaguar.

They had a female as well (Zilla) but not sure what became of her. If they did breed then it wasn't successful

Named Pascha and Uganda... they don't actually mention sex at all but from the pictures I believe it is one of each.
