Yes, they eat almost any prey, including catfish, guinea fowl, pythons, cane rats, jackals, and baboons. Nonetheless, they prefer various wild hoofed animals weighing between 40 and 150 pounds (18 to 68 kg), such as the impala in Africa and the deer and pig in Asia. Most hoofed animals, however, are so agile that they may successfully elude the attack. In a report of seven observed rushes only three proved successful for the leopard. The species also preys on domestic animals and occasionally on humans. One leopard in India reportedly killed more than 200 people. An indication of the leopard's usual food consumption is the estimate that in Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, leopards kill an average of one Thompson's gazelle, weighing about 30 pounds (13.6 kg), each week
