Schleich Wild Life Snow Leopard

Schleich Wild Life Snow Leopard

The snow leopard has a light grey coat with black rosettes, just like the intricately painted snow leopard from Schleich® Wild Life.

The snow leopard is a large cat that lives in the high rocky mountains of Central Asia. It feeds mainly on sheep, ibex and goats. Thick fur protects it against freezing cold temperatures but its beauty means that many animals fall prey to poachers. That’s why the snow leopard is an endangered species. A special feature is its tail which, like the snow leopard from Schleich® Wild Life, is nearly as long as its body.

Fun fact
The snow leopard uses its long, bushy tail as a rudder when jumping and also to protect against the cold.
