Today, we join the global community to celebrate international #SnowLeopardDay 🐆 – and all those working to conserve these incredible animals and their habitats.

This camera trap image was collected by the Ilbirs Foundation at the Baiboosun micro-reserve – 14,000 hectares in Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬 managed by local communities who play a critical role in the conservation of wildlife. 🌿 #PeaceWithNature 🌿

🏔️ Let’s work together to ensure a future where these icons can continue to call the mountains of Central Asia home!

Two of our projects supporting partners in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, #CAMCAproject and #VanishingTreasures , are also bringing snow leopard conservation to Cali for #COP16Colombia:
