BENIGN GASTRIC NEUROENDOCRINE TUMORS IN THREE SNOW LEOPARDS (PANTHERA UNCIA)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2013
Neuroendocrine tumors are relatively rare neoplasms arising from neuroendocrine cells that are distributed throughout the body and are predominant in the gastrointestinal tract. This report describes benign, well-differentiated gastric neuroendocrine tumors in three captive snow leopards (Panthera uncia). All tumors were well circumscribed, were within

Status of the snow leopard Panthera uncia in Northwest India

Biological Conservation, 1991
Abstract A nine-month survey of snow leopard Panthera uncia status was carried out in selected regions of India's three northwestern Himalayan states. Evidence of snow leopard presence was most abundant in central Ladakh, decreased southward toward the crest of the Himalaya, and was least on the southern side of the main Himalaya, where evidence of

Population genetics of the snow leopards (Panthera uncia) from the Western Himalayas, India

Mammalian Biology, 2021
The snow leopard (Panthera uncia), one of the most threatened felids distributed along the high-altitude mountains in the Himalayas, has experienced a steady population decline in most of its distribution range due to the loss of suitable habitats, anthropogenic activities, and retaliatory killings.

EVALUATION OF DEXMEDETOMIDINE WITH TILETAMINE-ZOLAZEPAM FOR SNOW LEOPARD (PANTHERA UNCIA) IMMOBILIZATION

Journal of Wildlife Diseases
This study describes two different doses of dexmedetomidine combined with tiletamine-zolazepam (TZ) for anesthesia in snow leopards (Panthera uncia). A total of 11 adult snow leopards were anesthetized in Xining City, Qinghai Province, China from November 2019 to June 2023. We recorded the onset time, anesthesia duration, head-up time, and walking time.

Status of the snow Leopard Panthera uncia in Qinghai and Gansu Provinces, China

Biological Conservation, 1988
Abstract The status and distribution of snow leopard Panthera uncia were investigated in two provinces of China. The cats occur over about 65 000 km 2 or 9% of Qinghai Province, and in a few places along the western edge of Gansu Province. In many areas the animals have in recent decades been decimated or locally eradicated, as has their prey ...

Inducing pluripotency in somatic cells from the snow leopard (Panthera uncia), an endangered felid

Theriogenology, 2012
Induced pluripotency is a new approach to produce embryonic stem-like cells from somatic cells that provides a unique means to understand both pluripotency and lineage assignment. To investigate whether this technology could be applied to endangered species, where the limited availability of gametes makes production and research on embryonic stem cells

Purulent Meningoventriculitis caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus in a Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2012
Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus (SEZ) is a zoonotic pathogen that causes respiratory tract infections in man and animals. SEZ infections are very rare in felids. This report describes purulent meningoventriculitis caused by SEZ in an approximately 16-year-old male snow leopard (Panthera uncia).

Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia) Genetics: The Knowledge Gaps, Needs, and Implications for Conservation

Journal of the Indian Institute of Science, 2021
Conservation geneticists apply genetic theory and techniques to preserve endangered species as dynamic entities, capable of coping with environmental change and thus minimizing their risk of extinction. Snow leopards are an umbrella species of High Asia, and a keystone for maintaining biodiversity within this fragile ecosystem. A clear understanding of
