What is the value of the leopard to mankind?

The leopard does not seek fame. It is often said that a leopard dies and leaves its skin, as a metaphor for a person who dies and leaves his name in the world. The new Wang dynasty history - Zhou book - five Yanzhang biography, said: "Yanzhang martial arts do not know the book, often for the slang said: 'Leopard death to leave skin, people die to leave a name.' Its in loyalty and righteousness, cover nature also." In fact, as far as the leopard is concerned, it is disdainful of the name, the leopard is clear, no matter what fame they get, it is all a false name, for it, the most important thing is to catch the prey. No reputation, the leopard does not hurt hair, and no prey, that means death. Therefore, the leopard regarded the reputation as dirt, and the actual ability is very valuable, that is the survival, development of the capital ah. I think, if a person can be like the leopard to transcend themselves, will surely become a great person.

Human beings are the only animals that are jealous of the leopard. In the animal kingdom the leopard has almost no natural enemies, it is brave, fierce, strong, divine, is the real strong man. However, all of this has attracted human jealousy, jealousy is very strong human can not tolerate the leopard this warrior, unscrupulous encroachment on its home or cruelty to hunt them. Now, the animal kingdom in the warrior in front of human beings into a weak. Its population is on the verge of extinction. This man is because people have developed an endless desire for leopards. The Compendium of Materia Medica has this explanation: "Leopard meat flavor acid, sex flat, non-toxic, can be safe viscera, make up for the absolute injury, strong muscles and bones; fat and in the hair cream, the coating twilight born; skull as a pillow, sleep can be avoided, burn ash dripping juice, go to the head of the wind and white flakes." It is not difficult to see that the leopard is too great for human use. It seems that the action of human elimination of the leopard can only to the leopard extinction before they are willing to stop.
