Snow Leopard Research in Nepal

October 26, 2020

Kathmandu Council member Tshiring Lhamu Lama is dedicated to protecting the snow leopards that live near Phoksundo Lake in Nepal’s Shey Phoksundo National Park. A recent profile in the Nepali Times tells the story of her research and conservation efforts, including plans for a Snow Leopard Conservation Trek in the coming year.

Tshiring Lhamo Lama aims to conserve the Bon culture and develop ecotourism in mountainous Dolpo, her home in northwestern Nepal. She holds a B.Sc. in Environmental Science and a M.Sc. in Natural Resources Management, with support from WWF and the Chandra Gurung Memorial Fellowship. She was a member of Dolpo Expedition 2016: Return to Realm of the Snow Leopard, with world-renowned conservation biologist, Dr. George Schaller
