Along the Central Asia there is a beautiful specie of leopard that is disappearing in the past few years. That animal is the snow leopards, they mainly feed on wild sheep, ibex, marmots and hares. They have long-paled gray fur that covers its body, and its patterned with black rosettes. They weighs about 145 lb, and they normally inhabit on cold snowy mountains or rocky outcrops. A long time ago there’s about 7,500 of these tiger-like mammals roaming in the world, but now there’s only about 6,000 of them left. Climate change, lack of food and poaching are the main reasons why their population have gone down.
Climate change is perhaps the greatest long-term threat to the snow leopards. Snow leopard’s home is melting because of climate change,
