But before they feed, they need to make a signature leopard move using their powerful jaws and muscular neck predators. In Southern Africa, Vast Wildlife refuges, like sabi sands reserve where this leopard was photographed, give leopards safer room to roam. These Reserves also allow biologists to reserch the cats up close, enchancing our understanding of the cats behavior and our ability to protect them. The Study of Leopards is just one example of how an understanding of biology can help us preserve life.  4a0  aGrade 10-121 aBeth Wilbur eeditor1 aEric J. Simoneauthor1 aJane B.
