Sansa (Maliththan-Kotu Wala 3:3 Female, YF 64) is a female leopard of Yala National Park; “Sansa” is a name used by Yala trackers and the Leopard Trails team. Seen as a cub a few months old around Welmalkema in August 2021, she is the first known cub of Strawberry. Shy as a young cub, unlike her mother, she became comfortable around vehicles over time.
