High above the savannah in Kenya"s Masai Mara National Reserve, a leopard curls up on a tree branch, napping as the grasslands glow at sunset. Today, let"s throw light on one of the world"s most adaptable big cats. Leopards roam across Africa and parts of Asia, thriving in habitats that range from forests and mountains to open savannas. Their spotted coats are unique to each individual, like fingerprints, and their powerful climbing skills allow them to stash prey high in trees, out of reach of scavengers.
