Specifically young leopards in humid enclosures.
After keeping reptiles for many years, I've noticed that during winter months they're not as active. It's almost as if they can sense the weather outside, even if their indoor temps haven't changed.
My leopard has a "bed" in the humid end of the enclosure where it nestles down for the night. Once it goes there, I know it's not coming back out until morning. It seems to be going to bed earlier and earlier. It used to be around 4 pm. Then around 2 pm. Today, it was in bed by noon.
It's still eating, although not quite as much, and looks healthy, but is wanting to sleep more and more.
