There are only 40 Amur leopards left in the wild and that number is falling. Like so many creatures, the cats have been pushed to the very edge of extinction by hunting and the destruction of their habitat. The Amur leopard symbolises the fragility of our natural heritage. The future of an entire species hangs on the survival of a tiny number of mothers like this one. All animals, rare or common, ultimately depend for their energy on the sun. In Japan the arrival of the cherry blossom announces the beginning of spring. The sun' s energy brings colour to the landscape. The earth, as it makes its annual journey around the sun, spins on a tilted axis. And it' s this tilt that creates the seasons. The advance of the seasons brings constant change. As the sun' s influence diminishes in the north, so the deciduous forests of America begin to shut down losing their leaves in preparation for the dark cold months ahead. |
