Leopard in tree
Why do leopards climb trees
Leopards often use trees as a vantage point to survey their surroundings and look for prey. They will also frequently take refuge in trees to avoid predators or escape the day's heat. They may also use their position up in a tree to stretch their muscles. Additionally, leopards sometimes cache their kills in trees to keep them out of reach of other animals. Their sharp claws and long tails help them quickly ascend a tree's trunk and in their powerful yaws, they can take a large prey item up with them.Nomenclature
