Amur leopard Protection - progress report
1998 Full Book
This is the first progress report of Tigris Foundation about the conservation efforts for the Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis). In January 1998 an anti-poaching team was established. This was the first ever conservation project for this highly endangered leopard, its habitat and prey base. In this report we present the first promising results of the team. A comprehensive report, that will cover all activities in 1998 and will include a financial report, will be prepared early 1999. We have added to this repor1 an abstract of a recent survey of Amur leopard habitat in China. The survey was conducted by Russian and Chinese scientists with assistance from the Hornocker Wildlife Institute from the USA. The results indicate that there is still hope for the Amur leopard in China.
