    Are they still using the “Barbary” tag line for their lions?

    Have some of the cheetah now left Port Lympne as when there a couple of weeks ago there were two males and the female with the three youngsters, plus I thought there was a female (Izzy) down near the safari

    Does anyone know if Port Lympne still have amur leopards? According to ZTL they do, but I can't find any images or sign of them on their website.
