The Leopard
69Introductory
The Leopard is the fifth largest of the big cats (behind the Tiger, Lion, Jaguar, and Puma) and is the most widely distributed. While some subspecies are listed as Critically Endangered, the Leopard exists in greater numbers than the other big cats and has proved more resilent.
This Hubpage features information about the Leopard on the Internet. If you know of any other links or information that might be included, please let me know. You can contact me via the Guestbook at the bottom of the page, or by the email link to the right.

Great resource, thanks! This hub would be extremely valuable to students doing research reports; plus, it's interesting to those of us that aren't in school anymore!
