Arabian leopards and their cubs are half the size and paler than those found on the African plains. They hide in caves, feeding on gerbils, hares and small gazelles. Humans have taken over the desert oases, forcing the leopards elsewhere. They have been shot, poisoned and collected to the point where they are now critically endangered. Elsewhere, leopards can survive in other extremes, in mountains as well as deserts. The rarest of all live in the cold, Russian tundra, facing freezing siberian winters. These Amur leopards are the same species as the African and Arabian leopards with only small adaptations, but they feed on deer, wild boar and badgers. They would once have competed with tigers and bears, but now fewer than 50 remain, cut off from all other populations and killed for their fur and bones. Leopards have an extraordinary talent in adapting to our changing world, but it's not always enough.
