This leopard is actually just a few feet from a vehicle. Our guide said this was one of the best leopard days they have had in a long time. There were three leopards, and this one came right up next to us. These cats are can be very camouflaged in the dry grasses.
The Amur leopard is considered to be one of the most critically endangered big cats in the world, with roughly 30-40 individuals remaining in the wild. Habitat loss and hunting (for trophies and use in traditional medicines) are the biggest threats to Amur leopards in the wild.
The Amur leopard has been a protected species in Russia since 1956, but poaching is still a problem. Conservation efforts in the wild for these animals include anti-poaching patrols, customs control, fighting forest fires, environmental education programmes and working closely with local communities.
