Up close and personal with a snow leopard 😍🤯 Native to the mountain ranges of Central Asia, snow leopards (Panthera uncia) are notoriously shy and elusive. These cats are sure-footed climbers, using their long tails for balance and wide paws for traction in the snow. During summer months, they’ve even been spotted at altitudes of 6,000 meters! #EarthCapture by Philippe Matteini | BBC Earth

There’s no going to the grocery store in snow leopard land, but this cat made fast food of this marmot! A marmot may not be an ideal meal for a snow leopard, they prefer larger ibex that they can feed on for multiple days. But, a meal is a meal! | Snow Leopard Trust
