The snow leopard is endangered by poaching and by losing of habitat.
Yes, they are endangered. (going extinct). There are up to 6,000 snow leopards left in the wild, that's not a lot. They are dying out from hunting and habitat loss.
Snow leopards need to be preserved for the role they play in the food chain. Without them, the biodiversity of their natural habitat would suffer.
Snow leopards have not become extinct. They are listed as a vulnerable species with a decreasing population due to threats like habitat loss, poaching, and climate change. Efforts are being made to protect and conserve them in their natural habitats.
Snow leopards are an elusive animal, not much is known about them. However a combination of poaching and mating habits are probably why they're endangered species.The biggest threat to snow leopards like most other endangered animals are humans. Humans hunt them for their fur and their bones. Humans also destroy their habitat and food sources.Snow leopards are also endangered because when their habitat is destroyed, the countries where they live are not rebuilding their habitat, and if they are, it is not successful. in 1994,A raid on a group of traders in Srinagar that hauled more than $1 million worth of furs and garments made from 1,366 of the world's most endangered wild cats, tigers, snow and clouded leopards and Bengal tigers indicated that the lack of effective measures to preserve endangered species has deteriorated further as a result of the 8 year old conflict.
Snow leopards are endangered because their bones, skin and organs are valuable and used in traditional Asian medicine. Humans are also the reason they are endangered. The humans have moved into the snow leopards habitat with their livestock.
Snow leopards have been considered endangered since the late 1970s. The decline in their population is mainly due to poaching, habitat loss, and human-wildlife conflict. Conservation efforts are ongoing to try and protect these elusive big cats.
Snow leopards are expected to become extinct by about 2030.
