Abstract: Snow leopard (Panthera unica) is a felid which lives in the highly rugged areas of alpine regions in different mountain ranges of South and Central Asia. This solitary animal needs large spaces for its ranges but due to climate change and relatively faster rate of global warming in South Asian mountain ranges, its habitat is going to shrink and fragment by tree-line shifts and change in hydrology of the area. Vegetative modification of montane flora and competition with domestic goats will create its prey’s po… Show more

“…Sustainability 2022, 14, 1115 2 of 14 connectivity across the range of the snow leopard and suggested corridors for individual dispersal between populations under the pressure of climate change [9]. However, most studies were conducted at local scales, e.g., [5,[10][11][12], rather than at a range-wide scale, or using inaccurate occurrences (uncertainty margin of about 10 km) based on the names of villages or towns rather than GPS locations, e.g., [4,8]. The latest range-wide research was that of Li et al, which defined the conservation priorities for the snow leopard using over 6000 occurrence records [4].…”

“…Despite their numbers being between 200-420 individuals in Pakistan (Kazmi et al, 2021), snow leopard survival in the country is at higher risk for six main reasons. (I) Poaching; In Khunjerab National Park (KNP) and surrounding conservancies, 13 snow leopards have been killed in the last 7 years (Rashid et al, 2021); however, an expert survey indicates that the situation is much worse than the reported annual statistics suggest (Nowell et al, 2016).…”
