Detailed explanation-1: -Leopards dine on the sloths and spider monkeys, while frogs eat the insects. And of course, our decomposers like fungi and bacteria break down leftover plant and animal matter. So, we’re talking around 50, 000 plant and animal species that rely on these plants.
Detailed explanation-2: -The most common predators of spider monkeys are jaguars, eagles and hawks, as well as other primate species and snakes (both venomous and constrictor species).
Detailed explanation-3: -These big cats have a varied diet and enjoy different kinds of grub. They eat bugs, fish, antelope, monkeys, rodents, deer…in fact, pretty much any prey that is available! 6. Leopards are skilled climbers, and like to rest in the branches of trees during the day.
Detailed explanation-4: -Their diet fluctuates with prey availability, which ranges from strong-scented carrion, fish, reptiles, and birds to mammals such as rodents, hares, warthogs, antelopes, and baboons.
Detailed explanation-5: -Baboons, hares, rodents, birds, lizards, porcupines, warthogs, fish, and dung beetles are all part of the leopard’s extensive menu. This eclectic diet has helped leopards survive in areas where other large cat populations have diminished. When food is scarce, leopards will hunt less desirable, but more abundant prey.
