The Amur Leopard is an animal that is usually known as the "zoo leopard" as it looks like what you would see when you think of a leopard. But this leopard is going extinct and it is only getting worse. The downsides of having the Amur Leopard going extinct are that other species will be overpopulated and being able to move a notch up the food chain. If this were to happen the ecosystem would be in a terrible state because other animals that are used to the Amur Leopard wouldn't be able to use it

The first photograph of the snow leopard in the wild was taken by Schaller in 1970 in Chitral Gol, Pakistan.

According to World Wide Fund for Nature, “Data reveals Amur leopards in Russia’s Land of the Leopard National Park now number at least 57 cats (up from just 30 cats in 2007). And an additional 8-12 leopards were counted in adjacent areas of China.” At least 200 species go extinct every 24 hours. At the end of this class probably about 9 more species die out. But don’t worry too much, it’s mostly bacteria. And why should you care about the most critically endangered animal in the world? Well, conservation

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don 't matter, and those who matter don 't mind.” -Bernard M. Baruch. What Bernard is trying to say is to be yourself and say what you want because the people who matter in your life will not try to change you and like you for being you. But the people who don’t matter in your life will say things to change you that people who accept the way you are won’t care on what you do or did and for those who do matter and want to fit will do

The experiment was done by observing the Himantura leopard and Dasyatis Americana interactions with a school of fishinside a 760,000 gallon tank at the Adventure Aquarium for 90 minutes.There were two Himantura leopard organisms and approximately five to six DasyatisAmericana.A school of fish was observed as three fishes that are approximately three inches away from each other. When either species of stingray came within five inches of the described school of fish, it was marked down if any of the

As shown in Figure 1, Tomb of the Leopards received its' title because of the artwork containing images of two leopards depicted in paint facing one another above the paintings of a banquet. In interpretation, the leopards symbolized hunting activities and perhaps suggest as the properties of the dead.

in reality it is the opposite. Now a day society wants to be like everyone else around them. People hate you for being different and not living by society’s standards, but deep down they wish they had the courage to do the same. According to Leopard Man’s statement “Conformity can be seen as the world’s most common, but dangerous psychological disorder,” why is that? It is because so many times people try so hard to be someone they truly don’t want to be, but they do it anyway to at least be

The Amur Leopard, located in the Savannas of Africa and far East of Russia, are critically endangered animals.

around 12 inches. Precipitation usually increases during the summer months. 3. During Kansas’s hot and humid summers, I imagine the Amur Leopard would be incredibly uncomfortable. Its coat was designed to undergo harsh winter temperatures. Even a cool fall day in Kansas would be warmer than any temperatures it would experience in its natural habitat. The Amur Leopard would be hiding in the shade to keep cool

Abstract To better understand the metabolism of freeze resistant ectotherms we studied the hibernation of Rana Pipiens (leopard frog). My hypothesis is that as temperature decreases and increases the metabolism of the leopard frog will respond in direct correlation. We tested this hypothesis in a sealed and controlled environment with per-determined concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide at a specific rate of 50 cc per minute, and then measured the output of the carbon dioxide at room temperature
