Amur leopard

Panthera pardus orientalis

This is one of the most endangered panther subspecies. With a light yellow coat and long hair up to 10 cm long in winter, this feline is perfectly adapted to the harsh climate of eastern Siberia. Although the population is increasing today thanks to conservation efforts, the Amur panther came close to extinction, with a population of less than 40 individuals in 2004… This subspecies has been the subject of a breeding program since 1993, and a reintroduction program is currently being studied in Russia…
