The Mountain Leopard The Animal Clouded leopards have camouflage for the jungle. This is not helpful as they would likely move to a higher elevation as it is cooler. Therefore they may develop a coat that is paler to blend in with the snow. They also will likely get larger and develop stronger hind limbs to cope with climbing. Another development would also develop non-retractable claws to run faster in the former jungle, which is now a savanna, when they come there to catch prey. The Habitat Climate change would heat up the jungle, turning it slowly into a savanna. The new savanna would make there be many fewer trees making it harder to find food and travel for the clouded leopard. It would also be much hotter and dryer, making it harder to find food.
