Amur Leopard

Yorkshire Wildlife Park

Took the grandkids to the Yorkshire Wild Life Park yesterday.
It was a very cold day and most of the animals were inside, not to cold for this beauty though.

In an amazing tale of recovery, Amur leopard populations have more than doubled in just seven years. New census data reveals Amur leopards in Russia’s Land of the Leopard National Park now number at least 57 cats (up from just 30 cats in 2007). And an additional 8-12 leopards were counted in adjacent areas of China.
