Arboreal predator
Leopards, unlike other large African cats, love tall trees. They like to rest on them and observe the surroundings from above, and even pull up the hunted prey. If, for example, an impala or warthog approaches the tree on which the leopard is staying, the predator will not miss such an opportunity and will attack by falling on the victim. Such an attack in most cases is sucessful and ends badly for the careless victim.
