While leopards may breed all year round, they usually mate in the winter months, typically between January and February. After mating, the female leopard will give birth to two or four cubs that weigh about 500 g each. The female leopard will stay with the cubs until they’re at least three months old. At three months, the cubs start eating meat and will likely be able to survive on their own by 18 months.
Leopards are medium-sized animals, with short limbs and broad heads. They are also sexually dimorphic, with male leopards weighing between 37 and 90 kg and female leopards weighing between 28 and 60 kg. Their shoulder height is 60 to 70 cm, and their head and body length is between 90 and 196 cm. They also have a long tail that can reach up to 102 cm in length.
