Celebrating Snow Leopard Conservancy on July 4th! *Photo Credit: Karen Czekalski. Rodney in front of a mountain vista taken in Hemis National Park in Ladakh, India in 2013. I have a treat for you today- a conversation about snow leopards with Dr. Rodney Jackson founder of the Snow Leopard Conservancy. For the past three decades, Dr. Rodney Jackson is the leading expert on these elusive and beautiful cats. This ended up being a longer than usual podcast episode when said and done and I didn’t want to leave any valuable information out, so I broke the episode up into two parts. Today you will hear Part 1 where Rodney talks about his history in finding his path to snow leopard conservation and snow leopard behavior.  In Part 2, next week, Rodney starts off describing the challenges these beautiful cats are facing and how the Snow Leopard Conservancy is addressing these challenges successfully. Rodney also shares with us, what gives him hope for the future of these cats and other wildlife.   Visit www.snowleopard
