Or, if she doesn't have a spear or bow and arrow handy, she'll resort to using leopards—alive or dead—as projectile weapons.
Here, we see Sheena placed in a trap by the villainous Scarlet Arrow, so she must choose between being attacked by a leopard or triggering a volley of arrows from an arrow-shooting machine. Sheena lures the leopard into triggering the machine, its pouncing body blocking the arrows, and then she uses the now dead leopard to take down Scarlet Arrow like so:

In another instance, she's forced to fight two leopards at the same time, so she does the only sensible thing, and grabs one of the leopard to throw at the other one:

I haven't watched 1984's Sheena: Queen of the Jungle since I was a kid, but I don't remember there being very much leopard-throwing in it...
Both of the above scans are taken from The Best of Golden Age Sheena Vol. 2, which I promise to now shut up about. For now.

Oh heck, throwing leopards is easy. Just like caber-tossing.
