Fascinating insights. I have always been intrigued by the color variation in photos of different leopards’ eyes.

Thanks,Robyn -This blog was very informative and I have been fascinated by the eyes of all the big cats especially leopards which are the key to photograph these beautiful animals!

Leopards are beauty and intelligence personified! You do such a unique work by immortalising their beauty and personalities, such awesome creatures that will not be forgotten, like the Torchwood male that’s opening this list. As far as vision is concerned, they surely are the best subject to illustrate a carnivore sight and you wrote it greatly. I’m particularly struck by insects vision, from the great hunters like dragonflies to the efficient workers like bees…

Robyn, Thank you for a very interesting article about how Leopards see the World.
I have a question; Is it Piccadillys father that wanted to live with his grandmother and also shared meals with her? I don’t remember his name. Do you know what was his name is? He was very charming.
Thank you for sharing.

Very interesting blog on the eyesight of leopards. It’s amazing how nature develops in so many different ways, be it eyesight or hearing and smelling capacities of different animals and, of course, of human beings as well.

Such a good read on the eye sight of the leopards. They are such stunning animals and they are my favorite animals in the bush. Formidable hunters and yet they look so calm and collective, but lurking inside that body is a predator to be reckoned with. Interesting story Robin and I have certainly learnt something from your story.

Thank you Robyn for your insight on the leopards vision. Animals eyesight is truly different than humans allowing them to adapt to different levels of light. Fascinating!

Nice discussion, Robyn! I have long been fascinated with leopard eyes as well as those of cheetahs. I wonder how they see us…

Thank you for this informational blog about how leopards most likely see the world, but like you,I would really love to “see” through leopards’ eyes, to know what range of vision they have as well as
how many colors they see.

Fascinating and Educational. Interesting to note the ‘dot’ in the Ntomi male left eye. I wonder if will be fading away as he grows older.
