We Went Inside a Snow Leopard Den I Cute Cubs in the Himalayas

Snow leopards are rarely caught on camera. These elusive big cats live in some of the harshest environments on earth, in the mountains of South and Central Asia. Plus, there are only around 3,000 individuals left in the wild. It isn’t easy to film at an altitude of 5,000m, but our camera crew in the Himalayas did just that. Their footage of a snow leopard mom and her two cubs gives unique insights into these mysterious animals’ lives. Will the babies survive those crucial early months? Follow us to the Qinghai Tibetan Plateau to find out!

The female cub is a legend, she was bouldering through a blizzard before her first birthday

Honestly the Cubs and momma are cute but thank you for showing the farmers hard work, it truly is a treat to see them and we wouldn't have this in our comfortable homes without their efforts. Hope they are doing well!

One of the most mystical animals on earth. Their giant fluffy tails, big exquisite eyes and extraordinary coats are absolutely enchanting. I would love to have the chance to study them! Thank you for this video and showing awareness of a beautiful but endangered species!

What a beautiful video! Its too rare to find such high quality footage of Snow leopard family. The Himalayan people are known for their helping nature. Thank you, Terra Mater.

Any snow leopard footage is always very appreciated, THANKS.

[stevebennett]

That was an amazing video. I was actually sad when it seemed like all hope was lost for the kittens, especially the male, but a happy ending followed. BTW those cameramen r beasts for enduring those elements to get these shots. Thank you for another amazing video Terra Mater. This one is probably my favorite so far.

[piecefool]

Lovely story with happy ending. Hope the cubs have long healthy life.

[maenewcombe]
