Ghosts of the Mountain: Snow Leopard Expedition in Kibber, India
16,217
Published 2023-02-22
In some of the harshest conditions on earth, lives one of the world's most elusive animals; the snow leopard. In this film, I travel to Kibber National Park, in the India part of the Himalayas in search of snow leopards. Alongside my guide, Liton Paul, and his team, I also learn about what it is like for local communities to live alongside these animals.

Great work. Strange Youtube has not recommended this video earlier.

Wonderful film Roxy. You captured the environment so well and the frustration of trying to find these illusive animals. Loved it.

Thank you for sharing. I wish it was longer than 6 minutes so I could enjoy moreโค. Such a beautiful and majestic animal. It's nice to see the villager's and government working together to protect them by protecting the livestock.

Amazing film. The Himalayas are on the ol' bucket list of places to visit, a truly stunning place. So chuffed you managed to get a sighting. It will only get harder in the following years I imagine.

Hey Roxy .. just bumped on to this. Great to see the film on snow leopards of kibber in spiti valley. I am working on snow leopards in India from past 7 years now. Amazing cats. Thanks for putting this up.

Wow, what a beautiful landscape โค๏ธ I'm happy you managed one sighting at least. But sad to hear about the impacts of the changing environment on the leopards. Lovely video!

What an amazing expereince ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐

Snow leopard is the last and only animal human can barely reach. Hope human stop the curiosity and leave them alone . Animals with human touch all get endangered now. Please save snow leopard.

Hey Roxy ๐ป nice shots with those elusive snow leopards.. ๐ฝ

What an incredible and inhospitable place - straight out of The Lord of the Rings or something. That odd village of houses built on a cone of rock? Certainly not an easy life for the people or the snow leopard.

Fantastic video i would just say turn up the volume on your narration a bit as I find it difficult to hear you sometimes. Maybe itโs because Iโm using AirPods though ๐
