| | AWF: Wildlife: Leopard |
 | | Leopards come in a wide variety of coat colors, from a light buff or tawny in warmer, dryer areas to a dark shade in deep forests. |
 | | Leopards are primarily nocturnal, usually resting during the daytime in trees or thick bush. |
 | | The most elusive of the large carnivores, the leopard is a cunning, stealthy hunter, its prey ranges from strong-scented carrion, fish, reptiles and birds to mammals such as rodents, hares, hyraxes, warthogs, antelopes, monkeys and baboons. |
