There are several subspecies of leopards, but the closest to extinction is the Amur leopard. The Amur leopard comes from the Chinese-Russian border and North Korea. This is a very beautiful cat and is often compared to the snow leopard. It is estimated that there are only about 20 Amur leopards left in the wild. There are about 114 living in captivity where they are involved in breeding programs. Hopefully this will help the population rise and keep them from going extinct. People also use widely available poisons to kill the leopards in an attempt to save their livestock. They also kill them for the fur for the industry's. As told from above we dont have very much amur leopards as it is. so help these's poor kitty's.
