    This is really a challenge! It's very close to the camera, so a tiny part of a large animal. The thing that throws me is that oblique dark streak at center bottom. I can't fit that into a leopard. It might be the streak on a cheetah's face, with the face turning away from us. Or part of a giraffe? I'm baffled 😦

    I would guess a cheetah, given the spots and the wide-open plains in the background...
