Leopards have short legs, long body and large skull in comparison to others members of the cat family. IUCN has kept leopards in the category of Near Threatened species as they are on the verge of being extinct. Earlier they were distributed across the eastern and southern Asia and Africa, from Siberia to South Africa but now their population has declined heavily because of mass killing and they are now confined to areas of sub-Saharan Africa and also in fragmented numbers in India, Pakistan, Malaysia, Indochina and China. They are the smallest of the four big cats which includes lion, tiger and the jaguar.

The colors vary from tan to dark brown depending on the mineral deposits that were in the immediate soil surrounding the fallen mammoth.

The beautiful fossil ivory hues of tan, brown and blue are the result of thousands of years of mineralization. Regardless of the way they are discovered, fossil ivory is excavated in accord with applicable federal and state regulations. Other times the tusks are unearthed as a natural result of gold mining or road construction activities. Bush pilots sometimes spot the massive tusks jutting out from riverbanks in the Alaska tundra.

There are five rain forest layers which are clearly definable. They will also support a huge variety of plant life which will vary according to the rain forest layers in which they exist. The rain forest is made up of layers which will all have a different characteristic and be the home for a range of different birds, animals and insects.
