SNOW LEOPARD
SURVIVAL STRATEGY

The Snow Leopard Survival Strategy (SLSS) was designed to provide a clear road map for conserving the species and should serve as the foundation for national and regional action plans. It is a product of the membership of the Snow Leopard Network. The SLSS is a "living document," and will be continuously reviewed and updated to reflect current knowledge and conservation status of the snow leopard.

Click here for the full version of the SLSS (2 MB).

All SLSS documents are in Portable Document Format (pdf) and therefore requires the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

The summary version was adapted from the original text by David Mallon to provide an overview of the SLSS.

The SLSS provides priority research topics, which begin on page 49 of the full document. These have been organized into tables for easy accessibility.

The regions referred to in the SLSS are defined as follows:

HIMLY - Himalaya: Tibetan Plateau and other S. China, India, Nepal, Bhutan

KK/HK - Karakhorum and Hindu Kush Range of Afghanistan, Pakistan, SW China

CISWC - Commonwealth of Independent States and W. China: Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgystan, Kazakhstan, Xinjiang Prov. China

NRANG - Northern range: China Altai and Tien Shan, Mongolia, Russia
