There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

There are a couple of pictures in the web about Indian leopards at zoos.

This one is from Peshawar zoo in Pakistan and looks regular, I think:

So, that is why I always say that we can't use captive animals as surrogates from the wild ones, even when a few stuborns still believe that is correct. Captive animals do not develop in the same form as wild ones in many aspects.
