Hot Cares assists Owl Rescue with costs for captured leopard

Loading player...
A leopard will be getting some much-needed dental surgery and a tracking collar thanks to the kindness of HOT1027 listeners.

Our friends at "The Owl Rescue Centre" were recently called out to a North West farm to capture the leopard which had killed a cow.

They quickly realised the big cat needed a root canal procedure.

The centre has managed to raise about R26 000 of the R46 000 needed to cover the costs of surgery and the tracking collar so conservationists can keep tabs on the leopard after release.

Thanks to the generosity of HOT 1027 listeners, we'll be making a meaningful difference by covering the last 20 thousand rand.
