Used - Very Good. 2nd impression. The Slipcase has some slight edge wear but the book is mint and doubtfully ever opened as the pages is still crisp and clean.
Contained in the original pictorial slip case of the same design as the dust jacket. Original dust jacket. Original green cloth boards with gilt titling on the spine. Green end papers. 168 pages followed by a four page list of sponsors and subscribers. The text is drawn from Lex Hes field observations, but its main feature is the quality of the colour photography.
This is the story of the success the rangers at Londolozi, an exclusive game farm since 1976, in getting close to these animals and it charts the lives of the leopards over a long period.
The Leopards of Londolozi by Lex Hes is a culmination of 12 years observation by the author photographer based in the Londolozi Game Ranch in Mpumalanga Province of South Africa. Magnificent full colour photographs.
The leopard is the largest of Africa’s spotted cats. A shy, predominately nocturnal animal, it presents few obvious opportunities for people to study it and, in its wild state, it is one of the least-known cats.
