Talk:North-Chinese leopard

/* Distribution and habitat */ The data 2,500 is too old, in China now the number is below 1,500, which is still optimistical.
I come from North-China. I find the data of the North-Chinese leopard are too old. Maybe due to th lack of information exchange between western world and China, even the new articals use some old data, too. Now in Shanxi province in North-China came some new reports from relevant bureaus and organizations. There are only below 1,500 (not 2,500) this type of leopards in wild of China. In Shanxi province the number is at least 400. They still alive in natural reserve of Luyashan （芦芽山自然保护区）and forest of Qingchen (庆城林场), etc. From 2008 to 2014, Beijing Normal University and a organization of protection called CFCA used camera-traps to investigate them. They have found at least 11 North-China leopard in forest of Qingchen (庆城林场). And do some deeply research.

On the other hand, there are 11 North-Chinese leopard kept by Taiyuan zoo (太原动物园), Shanxi province. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.73.131.202 (talk) 10:19, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

Name
Why was the subspecies name japonensis picked when the North-Chinese leopard isn't found in Japan? —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 18:54, 25 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Interesting, but anyways, do see this. It is now regarded by the Cat Specialist Group as being the same subspecies as the Amur leopard, which is also called the "Far Eastern leopard." Leo1pard (talk) 16:05, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
