The leopard is very rare in northern Africa. Only a small population persists in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. The species has a very thick coat of fur, as compared to other leopards, that suits its cold mountain habitat. It preys on Barbary apes, antelopes and some small animals.
As with most other animal species, the encroachment of human into the leopards territory has threatened the leopards food sources and habitat and on occasions the leopards themselves are killed.
