Nisa (Heen Wewa 3:2 Female, YF 35) is a female leopard of Yala National Park; “Nisa” is a name used by Yala trackers and the Leopard Trails team. A rarely seen female first photographed in June 2014 around Heen Wewa, she was photographed in May 2018 near the Heen Wewa bungalow with her sub-adult daughter Niki, and was seen limping that month.
