Rare Snow Snow Leopard Sighted In Spiti Valley Of Himachal Pradesh

A fully grown snow leopard was sighted at an altitude of 12,500 feet near Kaza in the Spiti Valley of Himachal Pradesh. The animal was captured on camera by soldiers of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP).

Snow leopards are also known as the “ghost of the mountains” since their colour and form make it hard to spot them.
