leopards have one of the highest quality thermal insulation systems of mammals. Wool conducts heat inside as the waveguide , but does not allocate outside paws pillow isolated from six snow , not to catch a cold , very fluffy tail is used as a scarf and to prevent moisture loss ( leopard covers them nose when asleep - not only in the mountains cold but dry and liquid extracts leopard from food alone - ie venison ) . Normal body temperature leopard - 42 °.
• leopards have a very developed sense of gravity. Typically, the hunt is so - it creeps up on prey, jumps out of the shelter and 3-4 jump (10 meters) overtakes goat. At the same time he has to jump over the rocky ledges , not seeing the landing before the jump , and the depth of snow ( to the rock underneath ) generally only to touch and identify . Here plays the role of the tail rudder ( in other animals as well).
• leopards almost never fall into the traps . Smart , or rather smell human .
• leopards rarely tamed , but in nurseries behave exclusively peaceful. They are very difficult to ruffle . As far as I know , in the history of the Moscow Zoo was only one such case - 2 years ago Shiva phalanx of the little finger bitten off a girl who reached out to pet him , coming up behind him - a catastrophic mistake.
• barsyata able to purr. Adults - no, but emit a specific danger growl (very rare , rather Retiro ) .
• if the leopard fed, healthy, get enough sleep , clean, looking for a partner and not sure of their safety ( in the mountains all six criteria simultaneously occur very rarely) , the only feeling that he is - curiosity. Then the leopard can approach a person and look at it . If you behave properly , you can even make friends (only need to show that you are not an element of nature and scenery , but a living person ) . After several meetings, the leopard will trust you , and he can come closer. There were cases when pregnant or lactating baressy took food from the hunters (not out of hand, but left them especially ) when it is difficult to hunt .
• As with all cats, leopards in the organ Jacobson - vomeronasal sensor, an extremely sensitive to weak odors . Normally used for mining and other labels sniffing leopards . Bars opens his mouth , picks up his mustache (actually - the upper lip ) and retracts into the air that goes to the sky in his bosom between the incisors , where the sensor. Most likely , the body in leopard Jacobson is more sensitive than other cats because of the necessity of fixing odors flown long distances by the wind ( on tropical plains or forest breeze - a rarity ) .
• leopard - likely the only cat saliva which has no odor . It is necessary to conserve moisture ( to prevent evaporation ) and protection of victim detection by smell. With high viscosity , saliva acts as a lubricant for wool, not allowing it to stick together at the tips and preventing evaporation from the skin. By the way, leopard skin - monotone gray .
• there are two subspecies of leopard - Himalayan and Mongolian- Altai . Separation occurred because of reduced habitat , when two groups of genetically almost ceased to communicate. Currently the number of leopards is estimated at about 5,000. Barca prohibited fishing and fishing in almost all countries habitat , but poaching is still a major threat to them .
