Hej! 你好! Olá! Hi!
My name is Matilde, and I am a Macanese student who has always been passionate about animals, especially felines.
My master’s project took place in the Netherlands, in a special care sanctuary for big cats. I had the chance to observe lions (Panthera leo) and a tiger (Panthera tigris) for three months and collect their faeces.
