Leopard
LEOPARD or PANTHER [Panthera Pardus]: The sleek body and color that perfectly blends with its surrounding make the leopard probably the most successful modern predator. In India, it is the third largest cat whose range occurs almost through the entire country. It is also known as the panther and is often confused with the (now extinct) cheetah. The only other similar animal is the jaguar found in South America.
These races occur in India. They have a considerable degree of color variation. Animals from the desert zone are paler, while in high rainfall areas of the Western Ghats and eastern India, black leopard are not uncommon. The most successful and adaptive among the large cats, the leopard live in all types of habitats from open country to thick forest. Leopard will usually avoid confrontations with a tiger or a lion as the latter are bigger and stronger. In addition, have different habits and prey preferences even if both species shared the same area.
