Leopard Standing

Leopard Standing

A leopard (Panthera pardus) standing in the afternoon sunlight at the Pittsburgh Zoo. The leopard's distinctive spots are clearly seen. A common idiom notes that a "leopard cannot change his spots." This is another way of saying that someone can not change his own nature.
