First Ever Nature Reserve

By Georgia Boatman | Individual Giving Fundraiser

Celebration for Mongolia's snow leopards.

Thanks to your support these elusive, endangered animals now have a spot that they can call home.

For many years we have been working together to protect the Tost Mountains in Mongolia's South Gobi. Now, after years of campaigning, Tost is Mongolia's first ever Nature Reserve created specifically for snow leopards!

Currently there are between 14-16 adult snow leopards and their cubs roaming the Tost Mountains and with cats regularly migrating in and out, Tost is recognised as a hugely important part of the snow leopard's range. But, we need to continue our protection of this precious place.

By donation you will be helping:

To continue to save the last snow leopards in their remaining ranges
To contribute to help monitor these cats to enable scientists to understand and help protect these endangered cats
To help train rangers to improve their skills in monitoring and patrolling Tost
To help educate the loacl communities so that they can live with and benefit from their wildlife

You have helped make Tost special and with your help we can protect even more snow leopard spots!
