佩戴墨镜的“霸气豹”,扎着蝴蝶结的“贵妇豹”,头戴大金链的“社会豹”……虎年春节,一只“金钱豹”火出圈了,成为很多人的新头像。
The "domineer leopard" with sunglasses, the "lady leopard" with a bow, the "social leopard" with a big gold chain... In the Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger, a Panthera pardus has become a popular avatarfor many people.
敢在“老虎头上拔毛”,这只豹子靠的不是实力,而是名字含“金”、自带贵气——“金钱爆满”的好彩头,谁人不爱?
Its name contains "gold"in Chineseand carries its own nobility - "full of money", who wouldn'tlove it?
但现实中,“金钱豹”却是一种不喜欢抛头露面的动物。它属于猫科动物,喜欢独来独往,天生带着神秘气质。
Born with a mysterious temperament, Panthera pardus belongs to the feline family and likes to actalone in reality.
金钱豹是一种十分漂亮的动物,豹皮颜色鲜艳,布满圆形或椭圆形的斑点,很像古代的铜钱,所以被称为“金钱豹”。和指纹一样,每一只豹子身上的豹纹都是独一无二的,因此西方有一句谚语“豹子不可能改变它的斑点”,用来比喻“本性难移”。
The leopard is a beautiful animal with colorfulskin covered in round or oval spots, much like ancient copper coins, hence the name 'money leopard'.Like fingerprints, the prints on each leopard are unique, therefore goes the Western proverb "a leopard can't change its spots", a metaphor for "one's nature is hard to change".
