Owlygirl
So used to seeing pics of wild cats looking so gaunt. This makes me happy!

Punderstandable
This Leopard is surprisingly easily spotted.

I legitimately thought this was two leopards cuddling

Despite what your eyes tell you, don't stroke that inviting stomach - it's a trap

oooh okay I didn't see those posts. Funny, I was wondering how Leopards hunted porcupines after googling them and seeing they ate them

BitchButcher
Am I pregnant if I eat a whole baby ?
ToastedVanilla
God I hope so! More wild big cats, please!
jjamess10
This leopard ate too much pregnant?! Wat?
Skymureaux
THAT MEANS THERE WILL BE KITTENS! You must follow it and take many adorable pictures and not get eaten, at least until you upload!
BroseidonRulerofTheBrocean
This pregnant ate too much lunch
Merkava250
Yeah her ankles do look a little swollen
TaterNubbz
Either way, it probably ate too much
graehall
A lot of the big cats have a specialised slit running from their sternum down to their groin. It expands hugely to fill with food. This 1/2
graehall
cat is probably pregnant. But the big cats can absolutely stuff themselves that full. As their metabolisms are very fast because they are2/3
graehall
carnivores - and they convert the majority of what they eat in to energy unlike omni or herbivores.
graehall
(I've watched some big cat autopsies, and a lot of biology stuff :P But I don't know for certain if a leopard has this feature!)
CrossedLines
Yeah well I've eaten at a buffet before so I can totally vouch for the expanded food pouch.
duckshooter
I am no stomachologist so I'll believe what ever you just said.

i thought this too. it seems unnatural for animals to overindulge to that extent.
Nyther53
It's interesting that a lot of the behaviors people think are abnormal about humans are completely unremarkable. Overheating and sadism are
Nyther53
The two mos prominent examples of completely natural behavior that we somehow think of as uniquely human.
Superkroot
How common is sadism in nature? Dolphins and cats are guilty for sure, but can't think of others.
foxtrotninerniner
I'm not positive, but I think big cats often gorge. Especially when hunting is so hit and miss.
Nyther53
Animals do it all the time. It's where the expression "wolfing it down" comes from.
aykyle
Big cats do this. They don't always eat. Sometimes go over a week without eating. So they eat until their stomach looks like it will explode
DrunkGermanGuy
I work in a sushi restaurant and we offer AYCE at some days. It's unnatural how much some people eat ...
silkandfeathers
hehe. are we conditioned differently though?
VitaminJay
You clearly haven't been to a Hometown Buffet...
silkandfeathers
is that where leopards normally feast?
VitaminJay
Yup.
silkandfeathers
as an aussie, I'm not sure i'll have the chance to witness such an occasion. :)
SJDanie
You do if you're a carnivore that doesn't get to eat every day. They eats until they can't eats no more.
cathysaurus
Yeah, many of them eat once a week or less. Worse in bad seasons or if they're injured. They find food, they gorge.
emmaontoast
Thats what I thought, also.
silkandfeathers
i was wondering this also. thanks for the educations. must research further.
aykyle
Wild big cats do this. Not sure about Zoo ones. They sometimes go over a week without eating because their food migrates to greener pastures
MrStudMcMuffin
Or maybe it's anal hentai aliens eggs about ready to hatch?
silkandfeathers
this, i definitely did not consider.
graehall
Leopards catch their prey, hang them in trees &let them rot. Then go to town on the rotten carcass. His tummy is full of rotten meat :P
BlainetheMono
Talk about death breath..
MarcTheRN
Zodi
they don't like rotten meat, they keep their prey in the trees so other animals can't get to it. Once it's rotten, they stop eating it.
JuicyRhino
Thank you. The misinformation was gonna bug me if no one else said this. c:
Fachera
Imagine the deadly farts...
WhatzitTooya
They primary carry their prey into trees so lions and hyenas cant steal it from them during their meal.
PhilFrox
This also describes mom's cooking

dootdootfloop
http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/leopard/ wrong its to keep them away from other animals
graehall
Of course it's to keep it away from other animals - the tree is the leopards pantry! I thought was kind of obvious :P
anubisfike
But it's not to let them rot, that's his point... leopards aren't scavengers so they don't eat rotten meat. They hunt live prey.
ChefHannibal
They do this because they can't run from threats after eating so they.. um.. be fat in the tree safe from harm
graehall
It's so cute and gross :)
JCLII
This is false.

Leopards are my spirit animal.

mmmm I want some steak now
ImguritisIsNotCureable
Steak tartar sounds so good now...danmit!

God so do I - a nice 4-6cm thick 500g eye fillet seared and then baked served with stupidly hot mustard and crispy thick fries.

iLoveItWhenMyFingersSmellLikePussy
So that's what happened to that porcupine..
marochannel
why do they let them rot
itsprollyfine
They don't.
VanSticks
Maybe they're just trying to let it dry in the sun because they like jerky, but in a tree to protect it from others stealing it.
CharmingAndSexyGentlemanStarshipCaptain
Fermentation perhaps?
wronglever
So you are saying he is not only stuffed, but also drunk. *looks back up at picture* ...Checks out.
graehall
RUMM HAMMMM!!
NotACanadian
It's not rotten, the meat gets tender as it gets older. We do it too with deer and gamebirds.
