Mischa is an amur leopard- one of 8 recognized leopard subspecies in the world. Leopards have the largest range of all the cats and are incredibly adaptable. They occur in a wide range of habitats including deserts, savanna grasslands, mountains and rainforests. Unfortunately leopards have lost two-thirds of their historical range with many populations becoming isolated. To learn more about this iconic species and get involved, visit us for a guided tour!
