Panthera were able to save this snow leopard on Thanksgiving—and with our help, they can save many more.
Peering into the dark corners of a snow-covered corral in a remote village in Tajikistan, I could just make out the snow leopard’s shape, trapped with the bodies of the sheep he had just killed. The devastated herder was moments away from killing the snow leopard—until Panthera stepped in.
Incidents like this one happen every single week, and they’re on the rise. The good news is, predator-proofing corrals eliminates attacks on livestock and retaliatory killings of snow leopards. Panthera have already built 130 of these lifesaving corrals in this region. It costs $2,500 to build one predator-proof corral and our donations help Panthera to purchase the materials like lumber and mesh wiring, and employ local people to do the work.
