I would just like to mention that in the description of the asiatic leopard it is mentioned that its tolerance of extreme heat allows it to exist at temps up to 70 deg C. That is equivalent to 158 deg F. The highest temp ever measured on planet Earth was 134 deg F or 57 deg C so you might want to reconsider that value. Thanks for all the information about wild cats in general – very well done.

Leopards as a species are not endangered. Various subspecies are very endangered though, due to loss of habitat and human persecution where the cats are killed because they prey on domestic livestock. They are also hunted for their fur and bones.
