Liopards live in Africa, Asia, and the Sahara, preferring forests and savannas. They are carnivorous cats that can grow up to 2 meters long, 80 cm tall, and weigh 90 kg for males and 60 kg for females. Liopards feed on mammals like pigs, monkeys, and deer. They are endangered due to competition for food with other predators when hunting at night. Protection efforts include establishing separate habitats and feeding areas to avoid conflicts over resources.
