Historical Background

The African leopard, also known as the common leopard, is a fast and agile predator that inhabits various terrains in Africa - from savannas to dense rainforests. Its golden-beige fur with dark spots provides excellent camouflage, allowing it to blend into its surroundings. With a slender body and long legs, the leopard is capable of rapid running, and its flexibility and agility enable precise hunting. African leopards are territorial animals, primarily hunting at night for small mammals, birds, and other prey. Their sharp fangs and powerful jaws allow them to quickly and effectively subdue their catch. They are also excellent climbers, which allows them to reach high trees for rest or observation.

The leopard is one of the largest members of the feline family in the world. Only tigers, lions, and jaguars are larger.
