Leopard

Leopards are agile, solitary predators found across Africa and parts of Asia. Known for their stunning spotted coats, they are masters of stealth, often hunting at night and dragging their kills into trees to avoid scavengers. Their adaptability allows them to thrive in a variety of habitats, from dense forests to rocky mountains.

Despite their resilience, leopards face threats from habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict. Conservation efforts focus on protecting their habitats and ensuring coexistence with local communities. Zoos also contribute to leopard conservation by raising awareness and participating in breeding programs.
