There are around 4,500 to 7,500 snow leopards remaining in the wild, according to WWF. Bhutan's newest national park have astonishingly discovered the rise of the snow leopards with footage showing a sub-adult specimen scent-marking its territory around rocky mountain walls. Hunting in the heavily vegetated area for their main food source, the blue sheep, the footage also showed positive signs of progress for the Tibetan Wolf, the threatened Himalayan serow, musk deer, wild dogs, red fox, Pika, pheasants and several wild birds.
