The Amur Leopard is one of the rarest felines in the world. They are speedy creatures able to run up to 35 miles per hour.They are the only leopard subspecies adapted to survive in both extreme snowy winter and hot summer climates. Amur leopards are carnivores. They are opportunistic and prey consists mainly of roe and sika deer, hares, wild pigs and badgers. With less than 70 left in the wild, Amur leopards are on the brink of extinction.

The white rhinoceros is in my opinion the species that is most endangered, drunk to the degradation of its habitat by agricultural activity and poaching, currently only two live specimens are left and both are females (mother and daughter), the only hope for this species is science, which through invitro fertilization could develop more specimens but this technique has never been performed on rhinoceroses.
