Correct option is C

Error Identification: The pronoun "its" is incorrect when referring to "leopards" which is plural.
Grammatical Explanation: The plural subject "leopards" requires the plural pronoun "their", not the singular "its."
Corrected sentence: "...that are between half and one-and-a-half times their own weight."
Explanation: Since the subject is plural, the possessive pronoun must also be plural for subject-pronoun agreement.
