The leopard (Panthera pardus) is one of the four 'big cats' of the genus Panthera. The leopard is a member of the family Felidae with a wide range in sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia. Leopards have the largest distribution of any wild cat, occurring widely in Africa as well as eastern and southern Asia. |
