Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis)

The Amur leopard is solitary. Nimble-footed and strong, it carries and hides unfinished kills so that they are not taken by other predators.

Population left: Around 60
Found in the Russian Far East, Amur leopards are solitary hunters. Nimble-footed and strong, they carry and hide unfinished kills so as not to attract other predators. Habitat degradation due to rampant human activities is threatening their existence.
