Rare cubs born at Colchester Zoo
Two rare Amur leopard cubs have been born at Colchester Zoo. It is a second litter for parents Esra and Crispin, after welcoming their first in September 2019.
Amur leopards can be found in the Russian Far East and north-east China but are critically endangered, so the birth marks a significant milestone in the Zoo’s breeding programme.
Emma Thompson is the zoo's Carnivore Team Leader...
