CHITRAL: Snow leopards from the high altitude have come down due to intense cold posing threat to the people and cattle, residents said here on Wednesday.
Residents of Balach, Singoor, Seen Lusth and Shali villages said that the beasts had attacked the people and cattle in the past. They said that once an endangered species the snow leopard had now a considerable population in the national park and its surrounding mountains.
An official of the wildlife department said that the animal descended to lower altitude only when the weather conditions forced them in pursuit of food. --Zahiruddin
