LOL Am glad we …
LOL Am glad we could learn something from each other. I also had know idea that Leopards lived in Russia till you told me and I looked it up, but I guess its not surpising. Seeing as these animals are becoming more everyday rare I guess.
What??? Asian lion? …
What??? Asian lion? I really never heard that Asia has lions, I thought it was just a myth or something. My god, i am ashame of my ignorance. I just looked it up, there are indeed some asia lions living in India (always india). I wonder why we don’t see much footage about this subspecie of lion very much on TV?
I think different genetic factor is the reason why the cats have so many different sizes. Like human, some races are just generally bigger & taller.
So if what you are …
So if what you are saying is true Wouldn’t the S American Cougar be bigger than the North American cougar seeing as they would be the top land predators in South American?
What you say doesn’t make sense. Think about this Why is the Asiatic Lion smaller than the African lion, It certainly doesn’t have any thing to do with Tigers being bigger than Asiatic Lion. Predators size and weight all has to do with the Size of the prey it Hunts. African Lions hunt bigger prey than the Asiatic Lion did.
Also the same goes …
Also the same goes for the N American Cougar and Jaguar. Think about the Prey the North American Cougar has to choose from. White-Tailed Deer, Pronhorn, Bison young, Moose, Wild pigs, even Live stock. The S American Cougar does not have that.
Also even tho the Jaguar is gone from N American. Cougars still aren’t the dominate predators in N American. Grizzly bears and wolf (PACKS) are. Their are know Grizzly’s or Wolves in S America.
I GOT TO SAY FALSE. …
I GOT TO SAY FALSE. Predators don’t effect other Predators growth. (PREY) does. Where ever the biggest prey animals are thats where you’ll find your biggest cats. And what do you mean Leopards don’t compete for Food. If they don’t Complete for food than why do Lions kill Leopards on site? To elimate compation. Leopard in Africa are the biggest Leopards in the world becuase they have the most biggest prey items to choose from. Zebra, wildebeest, Gazelle, Waterbuck, Bigger prey=Bigger Predators.
Yea I knew they …
Yea I knew they lived in India, but not Russia I forgot tho. It would be nice to see a program on the Russian Leopard. Like you said it most not be many left.
I really like …
I really like leopards. In fact they are my second favourite big cat just below tiger. I think part of the reason why i love them because they r so secretive. Like tiger, they got very attractive fur. Although I constantly mistake leopard for jaguar or vice versa, but i do think leopard looks cuter than a heavyset dog-like jaguar.
Black leopards? I thought there are only black jaguars!! I know they are often called panthers. geez, these two species are too similar. they shouldn’t be divided.
I agree with you. …
I agree with you. Leopard is a smart animal that they can adapt to suit any different type of environement to suvivie. I don’t know if i shall agree with you about tigers and lions have anything to do with leopard’s smaller size, but i do agree that leopard likes to avoid competition between themselves with other bigger cats. The reason why leopard has a gifty abilityt o climb trees, I guess God wants them to stay away from tiger and lion. Just kidding.
I read many books …
I read many books about big cats, they all say that wherever there are many tigers and lions, there will be fewer leopards around. Coincident? I dont’ know, but i know leopard can’t take down a size of a tiger or lion.
Tiger is the most hunted animal in Asia, and their meat, fur and products are the most expensive that’s why they are so few left in the wild. Leopards hunt at night and remain elusive, so they get fewer chance to be captured and killed.
Don’t you know? …
Don’t you know? there are indeed leopards living in India and Russia. You can look it up, there are many Indian leopards and there are only a few Amur leopards left in Russian forest.
How does it not …
How does it not make sense? Leopards fall into a niche where lions and tigers are around. The reason why leopards are such successful predators are because they can fall into niches so well and can adapt. They don’t need to compete. Look it up. Leopards that live among lions and tigers are smaller. It’s the identical story to cougars and jaguars. The cougars in N america are twice the size as in S america. This wasnt the case when the huge N american Jaguar was alive though
Dealz, there are …
Dealz, there are lots of leopards in India, in fact far more leopards than tigers. Both have been man eaters at times. There is no evidence that the presence of lions or tigers has any effect on leopard growth. In both India and Africa they range from 60 lbs to 200 lbs. They usually hunt at night, while the bigger cats hunt during daylight, thereby avoiding conflicts; however, both lions and tigers have been known to kill leopards if they get the chance. Leopards are my favorite big cats.
Leopards are the …
Leopards are the coolest cats of all and black leopards are the most exotic looking creatures on the planet. I love watching them move.
Am just saying am …
Am just saying am pretty sure Leopards in Africa are as big as get.
That dosn’t make …
That dosn’t make sense. Leopards over where lions and tigers live tend yo be smaller because they hunt smaller prey?but places were Leopards are top predators are bigger?
Tigers are in Russia and India I don’t think any Leopards live their. But in Africa their are lions and Leopards aren’t smaller Becuase lions are bigger. A lone Leopard can take down anything a Lone lion can. Also keep in mind Because their are bigger predators in Africa other than Leopards. That means the prey’s bigger
leopards have …
leopards have longer tails too, that always helps me
Very true, the most …
Very true, the most reliable way is to look at the rosettes, the jaguars have a spot inside the rosette, but the leopards don’t. Jaguars are also more stocky and thicker set than leopards
i just can’t tell …
i just can’t tell leopard and jaguar apart easily. They are SO alike!
lol the snow …
lol the snow leopards have such fat tails!
i was wondering, …
i was wondering, won’t it be better for the cats to have
one of their own together in one cage?
such as, two tigers in one cage, wouldn’t it be better
for them?
like, to have a friend that they can actually reach and play with,
rather than seeing them through the bars?
of course, i am aware that some cats just likes their private,
and appreciate more their alone time.
They can escape the …
They can escape the midday heat, we provide them with air conditioned dens and are obviously more active at dawn and dusk like all the cats
how do snow …
how do snow leopards deal with that Florida heat?
Thank god!
Thank god!
sundari gives an …
sundari gives an intense look then looks to the top of the cage to check and see if the roof is still there
Zoo surplus… Oh …
Zoo surplus… Oh my god. *shakes head*
