The African leopard (Panthera pardus pardus) is the recognized subspecies of leopards native to numerous African countries. It exhibits a widespread distribution across most of sub-Saharan Africa, although habitat conversion has led to fragmentation in its historical range. Additionally, leopards have been documented in North Africa.
