Adventures in Conservation
Searching for Snow Leopards
Michaela Strachan is part of the first international film crew ever to travel to Uzbekistan's remote mountain ranges in search of one of the world's most elusive big cats, the snow leopard. Understanding where these animals roam is crucial to the survival of this vulnerable species. Michaela joins rangers in the country's largest national park on a tracking expedition to collect vital data and uncover clues about the behaviour of this famously shy predator.
