While snow leopards are adapted to snowy environments, they can survive without snow as long as their basic needs are met.
* Habitat: Found in high-altitude mountains across Central Asia, including areas with minimal snow.
* Diet: Mountain goats, sheep, and other ungulates not dependent on snow.
* Adaptation: Strong climbers and skilled hunters.
Snow can be beneficial for camouflage, but extreme snowfall can limit movement. Snow leopards can live without snow, though their habitat preference is snowy, mountainous regions.
