Snow leopards live in Kazakhstan, Afgahanistan, and Centeral Asia. There are 3,500-7,000 left in the world. That number isn't as low as the other animals I've posted about, but it's still low. A snow leopards prey is blue sheep or Bharal, and smaller fare animals, such as, marmots, hare, goats, and game birds.
