The winter coat varies from light yellow to fairly dense Yellowish-red with a golden tinge or rusty-reddish-yellow. The summer pelage is brighter with more vivid coloration pattern. Males range in weight from 32.2-48 kg (71-110 lb), and Females from 25-42.5 kg (55-94 lb). Amur leopards used to be found in Northeastern China, probably in the south to Peking, and the Korean Peninsula.


There it turned steeply Westward, north of the basin Suchan, then north to Encompass the source of Ussuri River and two right bank tributaries in the Upper Reaches of the Ussuri. There the boundary turned Westward toward the bank of Lake Khanka. In the 1950s, leopards were observed 50 km (31 mi) north of Vladivostok and in Kedrovaya Pad Nature Reserve. The association of Amur leopards with mountains is fairly definite. They are confined more to places where wild sika deer live or where deer husbandry is Practised.

A captive population of Amur leopards was established in 1961 from nine wild-born founders. A molecular genetic survey at least two Revealed That founders of the captive pedigree have more genetic information consistent with Panthera pardus japonensis wildborn than any specimens of P. p. orientalis. This observation lends support to a history of Amur leopards Between Genetic Admixture and North Chinese leopards in the captive pedigree. The zoo population in both the American and European regions includes a considerable contribution of genes from Founder 2, the WHO was not an Amur leopard. As of December 2011, there are 176 captive Amur leopards in zoos worldwide. Within the EEP 54 male, 40 female and 7 unsexed individuals are kept.
