DID YOU KNOW?
Taking To the Trees: Leopards are just at home in trees as they are on the ground. They spend entire days lounging on a tree branch, and can descend a tree headfirst.
Superior Strength: The leopard is so powerful that it can haul an animal carcass three times its own weight up a tree, where it will feed safe from scavengers like hyenas and lions.
A Solitary Species: Leopards are solitary cats with large home ranges. Males have exceptionally large ranges in comparison to females, and tend to be very aggressive toward one another. Male-male encounters often end fatally.
Cough, Cough: Leopards announce their presence to other leopards with a rasping or sawing cough.
