Thanks to those who read this morning's post at Facebook where you can see the camera trap video as well. Life goes on. This is a quick post before my main blog tomorrow but it was really good to see Asa's condition and attitude after four days apart. The feeding process is easier now, Asa has an acceptance of the situation and our meeting today in his patch of jungle was really positive. There is a real edge to the leopard now, a maturity mixed with feeling that he is really relsihing being where he is, calling the shots, where he should be. I'll talk more about this soon and tomorrow's blog will include our extraordinary meeting last week but it's satisfying to see him like this, pleasing that strategies I have given deep and long thought to are helping in this magnificent animal be wild and free. Not everyone agreed with this rewilding attempt, and that's ok but overall people are interested and I thank those who are engaging support, it truly helps and something good is happening here in the Himalayan jungle with the leopard Asa... cheers Jack.
