LEOPARD. 
The Leopard, differs very little from the 
Panther. The spots of his skin are com- 
posed of four or five black dots arranged in 
a circlo, and not imperfectly representing the 
vestige left by the animal’s foot upon the 
sand. 
These animals are said to be engendered 
between a panther and a lioness. The hair 
on the back and sides is of u yellow colour, 
more or less deep; under the belly it is 
whitish.
