You have a normal leopard.
There are no sub-species of leopards, just different variants. If you live in the USA, we generally accept two types 1) variants originating from South Africa or 2) variants from the eastern portions of Africa within the leopard tortoises' range (aka "Normal leopards"). It's a pretty broad assignment, but it's the best we have to work with.
Leopard taxonomy is a pretty intense topic.
hi I was wondering if someone here can tell me what subspecies my leopard is.
Thank you
Around 2010, the scientists who do this sort of thing decided that there were no longer going to be any recognized subspecies of Stigmochelys paradalis.
