New Delhi : With only 4,000 snow leopards left in the wild and 500 of them in India, a
new report has urged countries to take urgent action in the wake of climate change to save
the endangered species and conserve its 'fragile' mountain habitats.
Worldwide Fund for Nature formerly World Wildlife Fund (WWF) report titled "Fragile
Connections : Snow leopards, people, water and the global climate" said that more than a
third of snow leopard habitat could be rendered "unsuitable for the big cats if climate change
is not checked.
"Warmer temperatures could see the tree line shifting up the mountains and farmers
planting crops and grazing livestock at higher altitudes, squeezing the remaining snow
leopards into smaller pockets," a WWF India report said, "Climate change could drastically
alter the flow of water down from the mountains, threatening the livelihoods of vast numbers
of people across the continent," it said.
"With an estimated population of 500 cats, India has been a leading player in the
conservation efforts to secure the snow leopard and its habitat in the Himalayas," said Ravi
Singh, Secretary General and CEO, WWF-India.
