Snow leopards have small ears to minimize heat loss in their cold mountainous habitats. Smaller ears reduce the surface area exposed to the frigid air, helping them conserve body heat. Additionally, their ear shape aids in enhancing their acute sense of hearing, which is essential for hunting in the harsh terrain.
