The Snow Leopard


The snow leopard, while a popular mac OS, (we are releasing zoo park on MAC too you know!) did you know that it’s actually a big cat from Asia? Of course you do!  With only 6,000 left in the world they are in danger of disappearing off the planet due to their warm coats and their organs being used in traditional Chinese medicine.

The artwork below is for the baby version of the snow leopard! you can have cubs in Zoo park!



Location: Asia
Diet: Carnivore
Lifespan: 12 to 15 years in the wild
Interesting fact: Snow leopards prey upon the blue sheep (Bharal –  we checked, they aren’t that blue!) located in Tibet and the Himalaya. Incredibly enough they can kill animals three times their own weight!

Why don’t we have more playful kittens on our blog? Well, here you go, courtesy of Seattle’s woodland park zoo, you can see Gobi and Batu explore their outdoor exhibit!
