Snow Leopards Rebounding in Afghanistan: Scratching Post
A snow leopard is caught rubbing up against a rock in the Afghan mountains.
The new snow leopard research is part of larger efforts to safeguard wildlife and natural resources in Afghanistan’s rural areas, according to the Wildlife Conservation Society. The snow leopard study also comes on the heels of other recent work by the conservation group, which showed many of Afghanistan’s large mammals are doing surprisingly well in the nation’s remaining forests.
