Best Answer

A cheetah has two distinct black markings on their face near their eyes, sort of stripes. To me i think a leopard has more spots but that might not be true.
Cheetahs are tan with polka dots. Leopards are tan with those "Rosetes" with the brown inside of them. Many people get them mixed up.

A leopard's spots are generally smaller and arranged in rosettes, while a cheetah's spots are solid black and evenly distributed across its body. Additionally, a cheetah has tear marks running from the corner of its eyes to the sides of its nose, which a leopard does not have.
