Leopard of Love

His name is a reference to the river close to which they live, called Love (Amur), that crosses Siberia and China.
The Pantheras Pardus Orientalis lives in the south-east of Russia, and north-east of China.
To this day, there's only 50 of them left.
Their extinction is directly due to human activity : on one side, humans keep stealing their land. 90% of their territory has been deforested, for industry purposes.

And on another side, their bodies are believed to have virtues in chinese medecine, and they're outrageously hunted. Yup.
