2. Appearance: The fur of snow leopards is yellow and black with rosette-shaped spots. The spots vary in size and shape, helping them blend into their surroundings and provide camouflage.

However, snow leopards are facing the threat of extinction. Habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict are the main contributing factors to the decline in their population. Currently, snow leopards are listed as "endangered" in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Efforts to ensure the conservation of their natural habitat and better protection measures are necessary to secure the future of this species.
