Land of the Leopard National Park
Land of the Leopard National Park is a national park in Primorsky Krai in the Russian Far East, situated roughly 70 km southwest of the city of Vladivostok and covering an area of around 2,799 km2 to the west of the Razdolnaya River. Gazetted in April 2012, the park was established to protect the Amur leopard, a subspecies of leopard widely considered to be the world's rarest felid, at one point having an all-time low population of possibly 30 individuals. As of 2023, it is estimated that between 100–200 Amur leopards live in the wild; a further 100–200 live in North American and European zoos, with many litters being raised successfully through captive breeding programs.
