Wildlife was everywhere throughout the jungle. (Lucy Shepherd/PA Real Life) +++ British woman, 29, braves deadly snakes and pumas to explore parts of

By Rikki Loftus, PA Real Life
A British explorer has become the first person to trek east to west across the Kanuku
Mountains one of the last remaining unexplored wildernesses on earth, deep in the
Amazon Rainforest.
Lucy Shepherd, 29, who is the youngest ever member of the Scientific Exploration Society
Council, spent two months trekking the jungle in Guyana, South America, braving deadl y
snakes, aggressive wild boar and lethal pumas to see places it is likely no other human has
ever been before.
Completing the gruelling trek entirely on foot, Lucy was joined by four indigenous men from
multiple Amerindian tribes on the journey and filmed her experiences for a documentary.
Lucy, who grew up in Suffolk and is now based in north London when she is not on
expeditions, said: Ive spent the last year preparing for this expedition by doing heat and
weight training.
"The physical and mental challenge cannot be underestimated, and it required every ounce
of my resilience.
But knowing I would be seeing parts of the Amazon that no other human has likely ever set
foot in was exhilarating and I couldnt wait to share the places I discovered.
There are no explorers in Lucy's family - her mum, Aysha, 67, is a retired doctor, and her dad,
Paul, also 67, a retired teacher - but Lucy has had a passion for being outdoors and exploring
since childhood.
She said: Growing up as an only child, I loved climbing trees and being outdoors. I always
had an adventurous streak.

FEATURE - Leopard benutzt Babyäffchen als Köder
This is the moment a leopard used a cute baby vervet monkey as bait.
Thomas Retterath, an amateur wildlife photographer from Germany, documented the uncomfortable scenes as the big cat toyed with the small primate.
The caterer captured the incident in the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
No adult monkeys took the bait, and by the time Thomas and his tour group had to leave to get their flight, the baby monkey was still alive in the ‘care’ of its capture.
Thomas explains: “It had rained that morning and the safari had been very uneventful. Suddenly our guide heard nagging and shouting from monkeys in the bush.
“Quickly the cause of the theatre was identified: This leopard got hold of a vervet monkey baby, probably the mother had "lost" it in the excitement - vervet monkeys carry their offspring under their bellies, the babies cling to their mother. Instead of killing the baby quickly, the cat played with him.
“The cat occasionally let go of the little one, only to bully him again a short time later. She bit down just so hard that the monkey was not hurt. She took it in her mouth, as if she were transporting her own offspring. The behaviour was very much like when a house cat catches a mouse.
“The cat apparently used the tiny one as bait in the intention that one of the adults would become careless and start a "rescue operation". We watched this spectacle for 30 minutes. None of the monkeys got cocky and we left the "crime scene", because we had to get to our bush flight.
“The cat had not killed the monkey by then.”

FEATURE - Leopard benutzt Babyäffchen als Köder
This is the moment a leopard used a cute baby vervet monkey as bait.
Thomas Retterath, an amateur wildlife photographer from Germany, documented the uncomfortable scenes as the big cat toyed with the small primate.
The caterer captured the incident in the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
No adult monkeys took the bait, and by the time Thomas and his tour group had to leave to get their flight, the baby monkey was still alive in the ‘care’ of its capture.
Thomas explains: “It had rained that morning and the safari had been very uneventful. Suddenly our guide heard nagging and shouting from monkeys in the bush.

James Laird, 25, is a registered blind man who has managed to travel the world to places such as China and the Philippines because of pioneering glasses he received in 2016. James without the glasses. See Ross Parry story RPYBLIND A blind thrill-seeker has been able to travel the globe and take in some of the world's most beautiful sights - thanks to an amazing pair of high-tech, £9,000 glasses. James Laird, 24, was registered blind aged just eight after being diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) a rare, genetic disorder. Adventure-loving James was left with just five per cent vision with severe difficulty seeing at night and the loss of his peripheral vision. But thanks to a pair of specially-designed AR - or Augmented Reality glasses - he is now able to do and see many things that he thought he would never be able to. These include scuba diving in the Red Sea, watching a space rocket launch in Florida and quad-biking in the Sahara Desert. The glasses are equipped with cameras which focus and enhance what is around him. Speaking of his remarkable journey James said: “When I was young I was told about my diminishing eyesight and vowed from the get-go that I’d never let it stop me. “My dream was always to travel.

James without the glasses. See Ross Parry story RPYBLIND A blind thrill-seeker has been able to travel the globe and take in some of the world's most beautiful sights - thanks to an amazing pair of high-tech, £9,000 glasses. James Laird, 24, was registered blind aged just eight after being diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) a rare, genetic disorder. Adventure-loving James was left with just five per cent vision with severe difficulty seeing at night and the loss of his peripheral vision. But thanks to a pair of specially-designed AR - or Augmented Reality glasses - he is now able to do and see many things that he thought he would never be able to. These include scuba diving in the Red Sea, watching a space rocket launch in Florida and quad-biking in the Sahara Desert. The glasses are equipped with cameras which focus and enhance what is around him. Speaking of his remarkable journey James said: “When I was young I was told about my diminishing eyesight and vowed from the get-go that I’d never let it stop me. “My dream was always to travel. The world is a gigantic place with billions of experiences to discover. / action press *** Local Caption *** 27781196
