Snow Leopard
The ghost cat of the high mountains/Large Land Animals
The snow leopard lives at elevations between 3,000 and 5,500 meters across the mountain ranges of Central Asia. Its tail is nearly as long as its body and is used for balance and as a blanket in extreme cold. Snow leopards can leap up to 15 meters horizontally and have nasal passages that warm frigid air before it reaches their lungs. About 4,000-6,500 remain in the wild.
