Sightings Reported Abroad
LS7, Senegal (2018): LS7 was seen in January 2018 at Saloum Delta National Park in Senegal. He returned to Poole Harbour as a 2 year old in 2019, but sadly did not return again in 2020.
LS3, Senegal (2018): LS3 was photographed in Senegal in late January 2018, looking in good condition.
LS6, The Gambia (2018): LS6 was photographed on January 16th, missing a large portion of his tail, likely caused by a predator interaction. Unfortunately, LS6 was found deceased in a similar area 2 months later, so we suspect that the loss of his tail may have impacted his ability to hunt, causing him to perish.
019, The Gambia (2019, 2020, 2021): 019 has been sighted several times in The Gambia since her released in 2019 at Gunjur Quarry.
