Cat coat patterns and colors evolved to camouflage wild cats, according to a new study. The behavior and habitat of cats help to determine the appearance of their coats. Domesticated cats retain the genes that their wild ancestors had to control coat appearance. From spots to splotches to stripes, cat coat patterns and colors all evolved to camouflage wild cats in their particular environments, according to a new study that finally answers the question: Why did the leopard get its spots?
The spotted coat is a natural camouflage, which enables them to blend into vegetation in the wild. As with the tiger's stripes, it helps the leopard avoid detection by its enemies or its prey.
