hello from india 3 year s ago MARK AS SPAM

what about leopards? they have to carry their prey up trees.
think about that, heavy carcass in mouth(some incredible neck and jaw strength), and at the same time, having to dig their claws into the bark of a tree and make a sheer vertical climb,
now, that takes strength
