Pittsburgh Zoo officials have announced the birth of an endangered Amur leopard cub.
Amur leopards are native to the Primorye region of southeastern Russia as well as Jilin Province of northeast China. Known also as the Far Eastern leopard, the species has been classified as Critically Endangered since 1996 by the IUCN. The World Wildlife Association says there are roughly 70 adult Amur leopards in the wild today.
