Amur Leopard - Esra

Amur leopards, one of the, if not the most endangered big cat species on the planet are represented at the Colchester Zoological Society by Esra (photo here) and Crispin. The two are a breeding pair and have cubs in September 2019 and in November 2024.
Esra and Crispin providing great photo opportunities on our Big Cat Photography workshops, and often also on any of our other photography workshops at the Colchester Zoological Society.
At quieter times you may see Esra observing visitors from her hiding place.
