Snow Leopard  dreams of going home

Photographed at Taronga Park Zoo, Sydney Australia.

I couldn't help but wonder what this Snow Leopard was thinking about. Was he wishing he could travel back to Central Asia?

My Guide Book from Taronga Park states that they have "the thickest coat of any cat" and the "longest tail of all cats which they use as a balance, a rudder, a blanket and even a baby minder". Their paws stop them sinking in snow.

Sadly, it goes on to say that "as few as 2,500 Snow Leopards remain in the wild today."
