Big 5: The Leopard - 2019 Uncirculated Cupro Nickel Coin

Leopards are naturally shy and exclusively nocturnal, and so spend most of their days hidden from view.  They are superb climbers, using the trees not only to scan the areas around them for prey, but also to store their catches away from other predators. They cover exceptionally large territories and their natural prowess for hunting relies on their amazing capability of running at speeds of over 35 miles/56 kilometres an hour.

If you are looking for an adventure that is unlike any other, an African safari is probably the answer.  With breath-taking landscapes and amazing wildlife Africa is a world apart and it would be easy to be lost in the magic of this part of the world.  The different species of African wildlife are all incredible but everyone goes hoping to catch a glimpse of the Big Five in their natural habitat and to be able to tick the “famous five” off their bucket lists.
