Do leopard have good sense of smell?

Leopards do have a good sense of smell, but it's not their primary way of hunting.

Here's why:

* Ambush predators: Leopards are primarily ambush predators, relying on stealth and surprise to catch their prey. Their keen eyesight and ability to blend into their surroundings are more crucial for this hunting strategy.

* Smell for scavenging: While not their main hunting tool, smell plays a role in their scavenging behavior. Leopards may use their sense of smell to locate carrion and other food sources.

* Scent marking: Leopards use scent marking (urine, feces, and anal gland secretions) to communicate with other leopards, especially for territorial boundaries and attracting mates.

Overall, while leopards do have a good sense of smell, it's not as vital to their survival as their eyesight and hunting skills.
