DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2021.e01728
Abstract: Abstract The habitats of snow leopards (Panthera uncia) are heavily utilized as pasturelands on the Tibetan Plateau. Livestock can benefit the snow leopard populations via providing extra prey resources. However, livestock can negatively impact upon… read more here.
