What is the courtship behavior a a snow leopard?
Hi there again… more info on the courtship behaviours of snow leopards: There is very little known about the lifestyle of these secretive cats. They are very agile and prefer the rocky cliffs, where they can better stalk and hide from their prey. Snow leopards often congregate to hunt and play. After a gestation period is 14-15 weeks, 1-5 cubs are born, from April to June, in a den lined with fur. The female will use the same den site year after year. They open their eyes at nine days, and are weaned at 2 months. They stay with their mothers until they are 18 months old. Male snow leopards have a territory of 138-1,500 km². They mark their territories with urine, feces, and scrapping on the ground. Male and female ranges overlap, and pairs have been observed hunting together. Though they were usually considered to be solitary, they have long-lasting pair-bonds that follow a long COURTSHIP period. http://www.lion
