Drupata
Drupata (Dru) and Nuri love to sleep during the hot hours of the day and can normally be seen during our Twilight Hours events when the sun goes down. Parents of Malee, another resident clouded leopard here at Panther Ridge, they are the perfect couple- always grooming each other, chuffing and chirping, or napping together. These two came to us in 2017 from Nashville Zoo, accompanied by Tula (Lura’s mom) another clouded leopard that unfortunately passed away in 2022. Dru, our fierce and stunning male, is always keeping an eye on his surroundings, making sure he doesn’t miss an opportunity for a snack. Nuri, our beautiful female, is very shy and sweet, yet energetic once the sun goes down.

Suki
Suki is a beautiful clouded leopard that has been a resident of Panther Ridge since 2008. She spends most of her days sleeping in her den box, yet has a playful nature during the evening hours. Suki can be quite shy and takes a while to warm up to new people, but will always chirp and chuff loudly when she sees her favorite caretakers.
Taj
Taj came to us from another facility to be a companion for Lura after she was born. Taj is genetically unrelated to Lura and was born March 28th, 2018. Lura and Taj became quite the dynamic duo growing up! Taj is a very sweet boy and can always be found chuffing and chirping for his keeper staff to come give him attention.
Lura
Lura is the first Clouded Leopard to ever be born at Panther Ridge on March 5th, 2018. She loves to go on walks with her keepers and run around her enclosure with Taj and Malee. Lura is incredibly loving and we are so grateful to have her in our family.
Malee
Malee is the second Clouded Leopard to ever be born at Panther Ridge on May 30th, 2018. At a couple of months old, she was introduced to Lura and Taj to form a trio- that way Malee could learn how to be a Clouded Leopard from them and live with them as they all got older. She is exceptionally sweet and playful!
Peach
Peach is an endangered clouded leopard cub that was born at Panther Ridge February 7th, 2023 to parents Lura and Taj. We are thrilled to welcome Peach to our feline family. Make sure to watch our weekly Youtube videos to see her grow!
