Amur leopard, the
world's most endangered big cat, is originated in Southeastern Russia and Northern China. For habitat, not only do they live in broad leaves, but also conifer forest, or mountainous forest. For male Amur Leopard, it is 35 to 60 kilogram, up to 136 centimeters. On the other side, female Amur Leopard are 28 to 53 kilogram, up to 112 centimeters. Moreover, Amur Leopard reach sexually maturity at 2.5 years old, to breed and pass their genes to the next generation. Furthermore, Amur Leopards have many characteristics which make the species unique. First, the Amur Leopards are adapted to the cool climate by having thick fur, which grows up to 1.5 centimeters long in Winter, and it is a benefit for surviving in the cold. Second, Amur Leopards have a paler coat than most subspecies of leopards. Lastly, the tongue of an Amur Leopard has sharped- pointed rasps, called papillae, which are used to scrape meat off the bones of its prey. As Amur Leopard can be found in the mountainous forests of eastern Russia and northern China, it is named after the Amur River, which is a body of water that runs along the border of both countries. Moreover, Amur Leopards do usually eat deer, boar, and rodents, but also fruits like traumas to increase their moisture content.
