Stop the Poaching of the Amur Leopard!

The Issue

Amur Leopards are the rarest big cat in the world with only about 60 individuals in the wild. The Amur Leopard has been poached almost to extinction by the people of Russia for cash . An Amur Leopard pelt has been sold in the village Barabrash for $500 to $1000 american dollars. The people of Russia have also killed the Amur Leopard's prey for both cash and food. Though this isn't illegal, it is depleting the Amur Leopard's food source. I am calling for the greater restriction of Amur leopard poaching and the regulation of the hunting of their prey.
