mutual had a really good question and YES, amur leopards have distinctly long and fluffy coats compared to warmer-weather leopard subspecies.

happy world lion day to my favorite animal! i’m so glad there’s a whole day to celebrate this absolutely incredible species :D lions are one of the most crucial animals in their ecosystems in both africa and india, and their social interactions are truly unique and fascinating. sadly, only around 20,000 lions remain, immeasurably fewer than their historical numbers. check out panthera, kopelion, ewaso lions, lion guardians, and other organizations to help save these extraordinary cats 🤍🦁also, i highly recommend the book “the lion: behavior, ecology and conservation of an iconic species” by craig packer. it’s an amazing book that dives deep into every aspect of lion life. here’s some cool lion clips :)
