Baby male Amur leopard called Cipisek (Panthera pardus orientalis, Levhart mandzusky) from ZOO Olomouc, Czech republic :nod: not the best quality - but this animal is SO rare, that I have to share it!

Story of the photo: People, I am so happy :aww: I visited pavilion of big cats today and I spotted lovely tiny fluffy ball near huge paws of adult female. I was so shocked - this kitty is ONLY one month old! ZOO has not announced his birth yet :aww: his mommy took him from the box only two days ago. The baby is so small that it moves with problems and is very adorable :aww: Czech republic is super power in breeding extremely endangered Amur leopards! :aww:


Thank you in advance for your comments and faves :hug:
____________


INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:

Name: Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis)
Location: forests of Eastern Asia
Size: 1.9 m long body + 95 cm lond tail, 80 cm high weight: 60 kg
Diet: roe and sika deer, hares
Conservation status: Critically Endangered - facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild
Interesting facts: there are ONLY some 30 (THIRTY!!!) Amur leopards in the wild! | Amur leopard is the biggest from all leopard subspecies | Amur leopards have blue eyes | only female takes care of the cubs | in the wild, leopards live for 10-15 years, but they can live 20 years in captivity
ZOO: There are only 17 pureblooded Amur leopards in the World’s ZOOs – and 5 of them live in ZOO Prague in the Czech republic. 4 Czech ZOOs keep Amur leopards (Prague, Usti, Olomouc and Decin)

These animals are so stunning. Its such a shame they're so critically endangered. Hopefully the breeding programme should help boost up their numbers though!

If I had a nickel for every time I was sent to my doom by a puppet, I would have two nickels. It's not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
