The Amur leopard is listed as Endangered by the IUCN and is on CITES Appendix I for protection status. The major threats to survival are depletion of prey species, loss of habitat and conflict with humans. Field survey data estimates that there are fewer than 50 leopards left in the wild, making the Amur leopard one of the world's most endangered cat taxa. There are approximately 200 Amur leopards in captivity, mostly in zoos in North America and throughout Europe.
