The Snow Leopard Trust was founded in in 1981 by Helen Elaine Freeman (March 10, 1932 – September 20, 2007). Working as a volunteer at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, Freeman became fascinated with the snow leopards there and learnt about their plight. She later joined the staff of the Zoo and was motivated to set up the Trust to protect the snow leopard in the wild, and its habitat.
Today the Trust performs scientific research projects, manages community-level conservation programs, and fosters global collaboration among snow leopard experts and other snow leopard support groups.
Our mission is to secure the long-term survival of the snow leopard, and in order to achieve that, we need to protect it across large, connected landscapes throughout its range. Today, we are working successfully in a limited number of areas, so we're looking to scale up our programs in the future to protHope this helps!
