The official mascot for the FIFA World Cup 2010 is Zakumi - an anthropomorphised leopard with green hair. His name comes from "ZA", the international abbreviation for South Africa, and "kumi", a word that means "ten" in various African languages. The mascot's colours reflect those of the host nation's playing strip – yellow and green.
Zakumi's official motto is "Zakumi's game is Fair Play"!
