The Snow Leopard Trust China Team has just released a series of photographs taken by motion sensing cameras placed throughout snow leopard habitat in their country. The result? Incredible images depicting multiple snow leopards hunting and feeding- behavior that has only been captured a few times before. All photos are below, however a short video was made of two one-second images that can be view by clicking here.
The series of photos below depict a mother snow leopard and her two cubs feeding on an blue sheep over the span of one snowy day.
The snow leopard below was photographed stretching and resting while he finishes a meal.
The last photograph is a true testament to the artistic nature of our researchers in the field. A motion sensing camera was placed looking up a steep incline, and at the very top a snow leopard makes their appearance.

I love snow leopards. These pictures are really amazing!!
i hope you have a good videos there. The pictures are so cool to see such amazing animals like the snow leopards. I like to watch how they hunt. do they hunt alone or in groups? I wonder. Also they have snow in their backs and got a feeling they just roam around even it is cold just for a hunt. they are must be hungry that time. 🙂
