Hi All,
Yesterday we caught a new snow leopard, believe it or not it is a female!! She seems large (although we don’t have much to compare to yet, do we.) as she weighed 36 kg, and was 115 cm in body length with 98 cm long tail. We think that she is 4-6 years old and that she has had cubs at some point. It will be interesting to follow her movements.
The collaring went smoothly even though we weren’t mentally prepared: we finished setting up just seven hours before! We invited my nearest neighbor to join in and he tentatively named the cat Khashaa.
