A Kansas City zookeeper got some great video of a leopard.

According to a post on the zoo's Facebook page, this is the closest you'll ever want to get to a hungry Amur leopard.

Zookeeper Kelsey Dougherty captured the video of the Amur leopard named Natalia. The video shows Natalia approaching the camera then carefully and thoroughly checking it out, with her nose.

The zoo says Amur leopards are critically endangered due to habitat loss and poaching. It says there are estimated to be less than 100 wild individuals remaining.
