Modeling Current and Future Habitat Suitability for the Snow Leopard (Panthera uncia) Under Climate Change Scenarios in Nepal

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study models current and future snow leopard habitat in Nepal, revealing that 19.41% of the country is suitable, with 42.53% outside protected areas. Under high‐emission scenarios, significant habitat loss is projected, especially outside PAs, underscoring the need for expanded, climate‐resilient conservation strategies. ABSTRACT The snow leopard (
