Passage:
Ladakh does not have any lions. tigers or panthers. It however. has a leopard peculiar to the region. This is the snow leopard, obviously so called because the animal is usually found near the snow-line, and when seen from a distance, seems to be white or snowy. The snow leopard is sometimes called the sated cheetah.
The snow leopard as the name indicates. is essentially an inhabitant of the high snowy mountains and is found all along the snow lines of the Himalayas. But they can be seen only rarely as they are nocturnal in their habits. There has been a great diminution in their numbers in recent decades, as much from the growing scarcity of their natural prey as due to the greater availability of arms to the natives, who attack and kill the animal for its valuable fur or just for fun. The snow leopard preys heavily on the innocent fellow denizens of the Himalayan heights: bharaL of whom it is especially fond, shapo, ibex and marmot. This has made the animal whose appearance disturbs the animals in a locality for days together.
