Snow Leopards: Ghosts of the Himalaya | Jack Wolfskin

Snow leopards live in a harsh and hostile environment in the Himalayas. Wildlife biologist Roxy Fuhrman takes you on a journey to the world's highest mountain, which is also the habitat of snow leopards.
In this area snow leopards are one of the most treacherous cats. With their fur, leopards can camouflage themselves in the environment. Because of their blending in with the environment, snow leopards are also known as the ghosts of the mountains.
Today, Roxy Fuhrman meets Tashi Gialson from the Kibber village in the Spiti Valley in the state of Humachal Pradesh. He is a snow leopard expedition spotter at the Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary. Since his childhood, he is interested in snow leopard expeditions. That´s why Tashi Gialson wants to help people to see snow leopards. Therefore, he has learned to scan and track snow leopards in order to ensure the best possible sightings.
On this day, Roxy Fuhrmann is on a snow leopard expedition together with Tashi Gialson. They found tracks and pug prints of snow leopards. Shortly after, Roxy Fuhrman had her first sighting of a snow leopard. In this regard, Tashi Gialson told Roxy about an incisive experience with snow leopards. One day, a snow leopard came in the middle of the night and hunted the domestic animals of the village. After this incident, the government provides compensation when snow leopards kill domestic animals.
But over the next few days of Roxy Fuhrmann's trip in the Himalayan region, she had no luck finding snow leopards. Not only because of the camouflage of the snow leopards, but also because of climate change. Usually there would be snow at this time, but climate change has altered the landscape and changed the climate massively. For this reason, the prey of snow leopards must stay higher in the mountains as well as the snow leopards.
This raises the question: What is the impact of climate change on the snow leopards and their behavior and distribution?
