The point was showing how these territorial leopards portion the weight so much better than dogs.

Post-mortem on an imposing leopard
The leopard in these images was found dead in the outskirts of Kupwara forest. Post-mortem on the animal was carried out at the Veterinary Hospital, Sopore.
The leopard was a fully grown male, weighing approximately 70 Kgs, robust in appearance and unlikely to have died of any ordinary reason. The post-mortem examination (pending histopathology) was largely inconclusive.

Great find Kurtz,

they have another leopard there of 70 kg

Nxosi

Nxosi was sighted 80 times, mostly in the areas that include Electra’s territory, as well as 'Buffalo Dam' and 'Birding Dam', just north of the Villa. He was seen on 7 oryx juvenile kills, and stayed 1 day on the kills only. He is one of our big males and took over TJ’s popular status (MJ’s brother) after he was killed. Nkosi weighed in at 70kgs, when we darted him on 11 August after he sustained head injuries in a fight with another big male. His wounds were treated and he recovered well.

Very impressive nambibian leopard!
His neck is so big that the collar looks too tight.

You did not understand what I said (I wrote wrong). I want to see a leopard male territorial live near people. I wish not to see dead leopards
