What's messing with the camera here?

    I think I see whiskers, so I tagged a lion, but it's really hard to tell.

    I may not be right but after watching it several times it seems like a bird of some kind. Not whiskers but flapping wings?

    I've seen a couple moths and bats go for the camera at night, too. Really hard to tell what this is.

    Hi everyone, I agree, I see whiskers, and we know that the big cats like to rub themselves up against the cameras, so i think there is a good chance this is a big cat. My guess is that it is a leopard since it is very rare to find a lion in the forest (we have lion on the list since we have some savannah sites coming up and those can have lions at them). Thanks for posting!
