Explanation:

A participle is a type of verbal. This means that participles are formed from verbs but do not act as such. They act as adjectives. A participial phrase consists of the participle plus any complements of modifiers. In the sentence above, the participial phrase is "hiding in the brush". This participial phrase modifies the noun "leopard", head of the NP. In this case, the participial phrase is neither dangling nor misplaced since it modifies the noun it is supposed to modifiy. Moreover, when the participial phrase begins the sentence, a comma should be placed after it. That is why the right choice is that the sentence above contains a participle correctly punctuated.
