Photographing snow leopards and Pallas’s cats in Mongolia
The Altai mountain range of western Mongolia is home to a small population of snow leopards that come down to 10,000 ft elevations in the winter to hunt. Photographing these animals required 7days of living in the mountains to find them. This talk covers the adventure of finding snow leopards in the mountains as well as Pallas’s cats which are found on the Eastern Mongolian Steppe.
