Black Leopard
About Black Leopard
A dark black horse with white leopard-spot speckling across the hindquarters — the Appaloosa leopard pattern applied to a black base coat. One of the rarest natural color patterns in TotK, found only in the Gerudo Highlands and Tabantha regions. The Black Leopard is a conversation-starter horse prized entirely for its stunning visual uniqueness. Stats are balanced with a slight stamina edge.
Where to Find Black Leopard
Detailed Location
High-altitude meadows in the Gerudo Highlands southeast of Gerudo Town and the Tabantha Frontier near the Snowfield border. Found solo or in pairs — rare. Coordinates approximately (-2200, -1100, 350).
