October 23 is the World Snow Leopard Day. This event raises awareness of the situation confronting the snow leopard, a highly endangered animal due to poaching and weaning habitats. Twelve Asian countries, Afghanistan, Bhutan, China, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Russia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan, are committed to preserving and increasing the number of snow leopards in the wild. These countries declared October 23, the anniversary of 2013's first Global Forum on the Conservation of the Snow Leopard, International Snow Leopard Day.
Kyrgyzstan president Almazbek Atambaev and the Global Tiger Initiative agreed to the first Global Snow Leopard & Ecosystem Protection plan, where more than 20 snow leopard habitats are to be preserved and protected. Snow leopard habitats are under pressure from large-scale mining activities, poaching, retaliation killings from local farmers, and climate change.
2015 was the Year of the Snow Leopard.
