Why has this animal become endangered This animal has become endangered because of retaliation killings, and the loss of food sources. The retaliation killings happen when Snow Leopards eat farmers livestock because the animals have either been captured for their livestock the animals come and eat them the farmers shoot the animals out of revenge. Another reason they are dieing is that hunters are hunting them for their pelts and the hunters are killing their food (sheep, hares, and some types of birds) thus a result of them being endangered. There are now only an estimated 3500 to 7000 in the wild (the big margin of numbers is because of the shy nature of these animals)
