Marozi
Type of spotted big cat / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The marozi is a name given to a type of spotted feline similar to a lion but with leopard-like spots, which was sighted in Kenya in the early 20th century. Skins of hunted specimens fitting the description do exist, but have not been sufficient for biologists to come to any definite conclusion regarding the nature of the animal. Naturalists have suggested that Mazori is a colour morph of a known subspecies of lion, perhaps involving individuals that retained juvenile spots into adulthood.[1][2][3]
