Not remotely morphology or biomechanics related, but I had a great time working on this and I'm really proud of it as my first paper 🤓

We found that Asian populations show lots of overlap with the niche of the African leopard, suggesting that as leopards moved out of Africa ~400kya, their existing flexibility allowed them to spread far and wide without major ecological changes 🌍

The work I did as an undergrad with @eegcam.bsky.social @mikleonardi.bsky.social is finally out, modelling the ecological niche of leopards to understand how African and Asian populations differ in their climatic distributions! (1/3) 🐆
