  1. Wow! What great pictures. These are amazing. Made my day. Sent a check in yesterday. Great work, all of you. And, hurrah for Pakistan for rescuing the little guy.

  2. Lovely footage to see. Reminds me of Mizi & Ranschan who used to do this (snow leopards we used to work with at a breeding program). They are amazing to watch when all worked up and showing off. 🙂
