I didn't think they had a female anymore?

Your right the male is called Jessei. He was born at Helsinki Zoo in 1995 and came to Cotswold's in 2000.

when i went in the summer there was two amur leopards, the old man i call him, the male and another more younger looking leopard?

I have just found out that the 2nd leopard you saw last year is Jessei's 7 year old daughter Amara. Her mother went to Marwell Zoo some years ago and where she died last year.

some sad news from the park that Jessei was put to sleep yesterday due to serious health probems. RIP Jessei.

That means the enclosure will be re-furbed to house another species of Leopard now.

Persian? From Chessington prehaps?

If I`m right it will house Clouded Leopards

A real treat (no offence on Amur or Persian leopards)!

It seems clouded leopards are on the march in EAZA zoos?
Which is next to CWP .....
