African Leopard
The African Leopard is a master of stealth and strength, thriving in diverse habitats from savannas to forests. In zoos, these big cats are provided with enclosures that include tall grasses, trees for climbing, and shaded areas for rest.
Visitors can watch them display their incredible climbing skills, as leopards often drag their prey into trees to keep it safe from scavengers. Zoos play a significant role in educating the public about the leopard's role as a top predator and the threats they face from habitat loss and illegal hunting. Conservation efforts in zoos aim to ensure the survival of this iconic species for generations to come.
