The Ghost of the Mountains

A ghost lives high up in the mountains of central Asia. It hides in the forests and usually only comes out at night. People rarely see it, but it leaves tracks in the snow. This isn't a real ghost. This is the snow leopard, a big cat that they call the 'ghost of the mountains'.

The snow leopard has thick fur with black spots on its head, body and long tail. Its fur protects it from the freezing cold. Its spots help it hide from its prey. It also has big paws to help it walk on the snow.

Snow leopards eat wild sheep and goats. When they attack other animals, they can easily jump up to 50 feet. They are very strong and can kill animals that are three times bigger than them. Luckily for us, they rarely attack humans.

Sadly, the snow leopard is an endangered species. There are now only 4,080 to 6,590 of them. In Kazakhstan, there are fewer than 200. Let's hope that the snow leopard survives and doesn't become a real ghost of the mountains.
