Are leopards territorial?

Both sexes are solitary and territorial and defend a territory. Territorial males have priority of access to females, while territorial females have priority of access to food.

Male territories may overlap with female territories. Border confrontations are usually avoided but, should a leopard wander too far into a neighboring territory, it will probably become involved in a territorial fight.
