Description

Poaching and retaliatory killing are recognized as primary and immediate threats to snow leopards (panthera uncia), and a recent report estimates that 221-450 snow leopards may have been killed annually since 2008. While local communities have a genuine interest in stopping snow leopard killing, most community members do not know how to respond during wildlife crime incidents. The purpose of this project is to counter snow leopard trafficking in the mountains of asia by piloting a community-based anti-poaching model with and for communities. This project is intended to conserve snow leopards in northern india by addressing the impacts of poaching and retribution killing. Specific activities include: (1) training local rangers and `community champions' for improved response and support during situations related to illegal killing or trafficking; (2) creating a wildlife trafficking community hotline and response team; (3) providing awareness and outreach materials to communities about wildlife laws and anti-crime resources; and (4) helping communities pledge to support and take ownership over anti-hunting measures.
