Indeed, it is the leopard's ability to adapt to a diverse range of environments that has helped it survive the increasing human in its habitats. nocturnal, leopards rest in trees or thick bush during the day, their spotted coats providing almost perfect camounage. When night falls, they use their keen sense of smell and excellent eyesight to capture prey. Being solitary creatures, leopards go out of their way to avoid one another. Each leopard's territory another's only slightly, if at all, and are generally not tolerated except for the purposes of mating.
