萨瓦纳草原的树上睡觉的豹子，马赛马拉国家保护区，肯尼亚 (© Klein & Hubert/Nature Picture Library)豹已丧失了约75%的历史分布区，并被世界自然保护联盟（IUCN）列为“易危”物种。

在肯尼亚马赛马拉萨瓦纳草原的高处，一只豹蜷缩在树枝上，在落日的余晖中静静小憩。

在5月3日“国际豹类日”之际，我们共同致敬这种世界上适应力最强的大型猫科动物之一。

豹的足迹遍布非洲及亚洲部分地区，无论是茂密的森林、险峻的山脉，还是开阔的萨瓦纳草原，它们都能茁壮成长。

每只豹身上的斑点都是独一无二的，如同人类的指纹；而它们高超的攀爬技巧，则能将猎物拖至高树顶端，从而避开其他食腐动物的抢夺。

豹主要在夜间活动，它们并不依靠速度取胜，而是凭借极佳的隐蔽性、敏锐的感官以及超乎常人的耐性进行捕猎。

尽管豹具有顽强的生存韧性，但受栖息地丧失及人兽冲突的影响，其全球种群数量仍在持续下降。

国际豹类日号召我们深入了解这一物种——并共同努力，确保这些非凡的大猫能在这片荒野中拥有一席之地。

International Leopard DayLeopards have lost about 75% of their historical distribution and are classified as 'vulnerable' by the IUCN.High above the savanna in Kenya's Masai Mara, a leopard curls up on a tree branch, napping as the grasslands glow at sunset. On International Leopard Day, observed on May 3, we celebrate one of the world's most adaptable big cats. Leopards roam across Africa and parts of Asia, thriving in habitats that range from forests and mountains to open savannas. Their spotted coats are unique to each individual, like fingerprints, and their powerful climbing skills allow them to stash prey high in trees, out of reach of scavengers.Mostly active at night, leopards rely on stealth, sharp senses, and patience rather than speed. Despite their resilience, global populations are declining due to habitat loss and conflict with humans. International Leopard Day invites us to learn more—and help ensure these remarkable cats keep their place in the wild.点击下方阅读原文，获得更多精彩内容扫码关注每日更新扫码进入微信小程序，每天0点准时更新
