In this introductory chapter, we present facts about snow leopard. We start with a general description of snow leopard, its ecology and typical habitats in Sect. 1.1.
Details on snow leopard distribution in the world follow in Sect. 1.2. We then enumerate the main threats to this animal, which include conflicts with people, illegal trade and climate change in Sect. 1.3.
The last part, Sect. 1.4, is devoted to possible ways of conserving this endangered species: changes in legislation, international cooperation, education and awareness and financial support for its conservation.
