Snow Leopard

No, he certainly did not fashioned out of snow, he just lives in the mountains, where snow lies and eternal ice. Irbis, so it is also called Snow Leopard, very beautiful and powerful animal. He recalls a small tiger, but he had no fur striped and spotted. Black spots are very nice on a silver-white background. Bars are not very big beast. The length of the body only 1,5 meters, and the weight average like dogs – 30-39 kg. From other cats spotted leopard different color, relatively short legs and a long, very bushy tail.
Leopard is found in Central Asia, Kazakhstan, Altai and Sayan Mountains, as well as in the mountains of Mongolia, China, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Snow Leopard – present mountain animals. Very often, he is met by climbers at an altitude of 3-4 km above sea level. He lives in the rocky gorges, among the very steep slopes near the glaciers.
Barca like these places because that is home to ibex and argali. Irbis traps them on the narrow mountain paths. Sometimes it one month following the herd on the heels. Summer because of the heat, mountain goats go high in the mountains, close to the glaciers. Bars come after them. If he fails to kill the goat, the leopard costs hare, groundhog or bird catches.
The number of leopards in the world is very small. Female brings in a litter of 1 to 5 kittens. More often only two. People at all times liked to hunt leopards. And only inaccessible cliffs helped these rare animals to survive now. There were times when the luckless hunters died, falling down from a height. And once snow leopard killed the hunter, pitting him stone.
But still, in the last twenty years, the number of snow leopards declined markedly. This happened because people are more and more used alpine meadows for grazing animals. Because of this, the mountain goats became less food, and their population has declined sharply. Because of this famine killed a lot of snow leopards. Now, all over the world are reserves to save this magnificent animal.
