You might picture leopards prowling the African savannas, but the rugged Amur leopard prefers to brave the snowy forests of Russia and China.
Fewer than 200 Amur leopards remain in the wild. With your help, we can secure their future.
Keep an eye out for our Life on Land adoptions, coming soon.
Do you want to support ocean life? Our new digital adoption packs launch in just 9 days, featuring seven key aquatic species complete with custom illustrations like this Acropora millepora. Sign up to our newsletter and we’ll send you a sneak peek of the full collection: eepurl.com/hFhG-j

Did you guess our mystery species? It's the Lake Patzcuaro salamander!
In the wild, this beautiful amphibian is found in only one lake in the world, making it extremely vulnerable to human impacts. Ex-situ conservation efforts and cryo-conservation are a crucial to protect it from extinction.
This month, we invite you to take some time to yourself, get outside, and enjoy nature.
What's your favourite wild space? It can be big or small, just somewhere you go to feel connected to nature.
Show us your favourite wild space with the hashtag #OurWildSpaces
