Leopards are extremely solitary creatures- being alone means they have to do everything on their own and that includes hunting. In the bushveld competition for food is tough and many kills are stolen by more dominant predators. It is up to the leopard to defend its turf and drive away any opportunists who might be looking for an easy meal. Luckily the leopard is a skilled climber and can drag its meals high up into the treetops. Holding on to his kill is crucial for no meal is ever certain in his harsh bushveld home.
