Researchers undertook a comprehensive snow leopard survey covering 59,000 square kilometres of Ladakh's terrain using camera traps and field surveys.

A new study brings attention to a different type of glacier - Rock glaciers, which are landforms composed of rocks and ice, and their importance.

Study evaluates regional factors that play a vital role in reducing conflicts between people and wild animals in the Ladakh region.

SLC-IT, along with researchers from Panthera, New York, USA, have attempted to model the conditions for a suitable habitat for snow leopards in Ladakh. Known as the ‘snow leopard capital of the world’, Ladakh is thought to harbour 60% of the snow leopard population in India. In this first-of-its-kind study, they have used data from direct observations and camera traps.
