Leopard (Panthera pardus) with a gazelle carcass. This solitary carnivore hunts small prey such as antelope and hares. It stalks its prey to within a few metres before pouncing. The prey is then killed by a nape or throat bite. Despite its size and body weight,the leopard moves with agility in trees and will often drag its victim up into the branches before feeding.
