Snow Leopards, Second Edition provides a foundational,
comprehensive overview of the biology, ecology and conservation of
this iconic species. This updated edition incorporates all the
recent information from range-wide surveys and conservation
projects, the results of technical and advances particularly in
genetics, camera trapping and satellite tracking, and evaluates
emerging threats. New chapters synthesize the novel scientific
methods and statistical analyses used to develop density and
population estimates and how they inform conservation and
management estimates. Sections cover historical information, the
main biogeographic patterns, evolutionary trends, conservational
efforts, and cultural significance. Status and distribution are
fully updated for all 12 countries where snow leopards occur. Other
sections describe established and emerging threats, including
human-wildlife conflict, illegal trade, infrastructure development,
and climate change along with conservation solutions used to
address these threats. The book concludes with a final section on
global snow leopard initiatives and future potentials.
