Leopards are animals that appear in The Lion King franchise.
==Information==
Leopards are powerful carnivores that often bring their prey up into trees so that it is out of the reach of other predators and scavengers. They are the apex predators of African jungles, though they are exceptionally capable of adapting to other environments. These may include grasslands or savannas; however, they are usually dominated by lions and spotted hyenas.
Snow leopards live in the mountain ranges of central and south Asia, inhabiting alpine and subalpine zones. The species is distrusted through Siberia, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan to Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, and Bhutan. They are primarily solitary animals and have an array of vocalizations, such as meowing, purring, and grunting. It hunts using its rocky terrain as cover, then ambushing the animal and killing it with a bite to the neck. Some of the animals consumed by snow leopard are ibex, sheep, domestic livestock, rats, and mice.
Clouded leopards inhabit southern Asia and China, resting in the daytime in trees and hunting on the forest floor at night. It lives in forests and Himalayan foothills in India, Nepal, and Bhutan among other countries; clouded leopards are solitary animals and are secretive. They are adept climbers and can climb up and down trees, even hanging from branches by just their paws. In order to capture prey, they stalk it or ambush prey when it approaches them.
African leopards exhibit great variation in coat color, depending on their location and habitat. Coat color varies from pale yellow to deep gold or tawny, and the pelt itself is patterned with black rosettes while the head, lower limbs, and belly are spotted with solid black.
Snow leopards have thick, gray, yellowish-tinged fur with spots on their head, neck, and lower limbs and rosettes covering the body.
Clouded leopards are small, having profoundly short legs and a long tail. Coat colors range from brown to yellowish-gray, and the body is covered with irregular dark stripes, blotches, and spots.
