Adopt a snow leopard

Your snow leopard adoption kit includes a plush toy, adoption certificate & more - the perfect gift. As few as 4,000 remain in the wild and sadly, an average of 4 are still killed each week for the illegal wildlife trade. Help protect these big cats and make a difference today.

They are powerful, captivating and incredibly vulnerable to poaching and loss of prey and habitat.

The elegant snow leopard is one of the world’s most elusive cats. Sparsely distributed across 12 countries in central Asia, it’s usually found in high, rugged mountain landscapes. But since the 1990’s, snow leopard numbers have declined by at least 20%.

Your donation will be used to:

Poaching, damage to their habitat and conflict with people are all threats that snow leopards face. As human settlements grow and wild prey declines, snow leopards are taking livestock, causing farmers to retaliate by killing snow leopards to protect their livelihoods.

Your adoption will help WWF to work with governments and local communities to prevent the illegal trade in snow leopards and their body parts, reduce conflict with local people and protect snow leopard habitats.

It's the perfect gift - with a cuddly toy snow leopard and a special adoption gift pack, including adoption certificate and stunning snow leopard portrait.

You can choose this gift pack to be sent directly to the recipient or you can receive it to give to them yourself.

Adopt a snow leopard today and know that you’re helping to give these beautiful and endangered big cats a brighter future.
