THE SNOW LEOPARD
-
Snow Leopard are native to the mountains of Central and South Asia, it is estimated that there are some 4,000 to 6,000 worldwide, and they live at elevations of 3,000-4,500m (11,480-14,760ft). Solitary creatures, they usually hunt at dawn and dusk and are able to kill prey up to three times their own weight
Warmer temperatures are threatening to shrink the habitat of the snow leopard and weaken their struggle against extinction
WWF says that the animal is threatened not just because of climate change but also because of a combination of other factors including:
• Habitat fragmentation: the snow leopard's habitat especially in the eastern Himalayas - is being increasingly encroached upon by humans
• A decline in natural prey, resulting in snow leopards sometimes attacking livestock, which can result in local people killing them
• Illegal wildlife trade: Snow leopards are being increasingly poached for their body parts
