Nero Panthers

• Animal species: panther
• Born: 2012
• Origin: Private owner

Nero arrived at Stichting Leeuw in September 2025, coming from a private zoo in Slovakia.

After the owner’s death, Stichting Leeuw was approached by his daughter. The animals had been left to her, and she was looking for a suitable home for two pumas and a panther. The latter was the cause of death. The man entered the animals’ enclosure, which ultimately proved fatal. Clear proof that these kinds of animals are not pets.
