Anna Breytenbach (born 16 August 1968) is a South African interspecies communicator[citation needed], animal activist, conservationist, and public speaker.
After having successfully[citation needed] studied Psychology, Marketing and Economics at the University of Cape Town she entered the corporate world.
Having been raised in Africa, she had little experience or knowledge about North American species and therefore found it difficult to analyze or interpret their footprints in any logical way based on visual cues.
[3] A short clip from the documentary film depicting Breytenbach's interaction with a black leopard at the Jukani Predator Park in South Africa was published on YouTube and went viral with over 4.5 million views.
