Abstract: Panthera pardus (leopard; Linnaeus, 1758) is the smallest of the 4 large felids in the genus Panthera. A solitary and adaptable species, P. pardus is the widest ranging of all wild felids, inhabiting rain forests, mountains, semiarid environments, and suburban areas throughout sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia to the Russian Far East. Despite this distribution, P. pardus is listed as “Near Threatened” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources and several Asian subspecies are listed as endangered. P. pardus primarily feeds on small to medium-sized ungulates, but has a varied diet including fish, reptiles, birds, and small mammals.

• Land sharing is essential for snow leopard conservation (2016, background): “Large felid species, such as tigers [(Panthera tigris) Goodrich et al., 2010] and leopards [(Panthera pardus) Stein and Hayssen, 2013], whose distribution range spans a large variation in these parameters, can exhibit vast divergences in home range size.”
