A rare female Amur leopard in London’s Twycross Zoo gave birth to a pair of cubs. Visitors can see the cubs through a live-stream that is outside the enclosure of the leopard.

Currently, there are only 70 Amur leopards in the wild and another 200 in zoos, all over the world.

Being critically endangered, the birth of the cubs gives hope for saving the breed from extinction.
