The Amur panther is the rarest of its kind. It lives in the temperate forests of Siberia, Manchuria and Korea. This beautiful cat can reach 1.90 metres long and weigh up to 48 kg. Beautiful fur protects it from the tough winters of its region: its hair grows 2.5 cm in the summer and 7 cm in the winter!
