Most people haven’t heard the call of the rare snow leopard. If you were to guess what it sounded like, chances are you would compare it to the sound of a lion’s roar, or a tiger’s snarl.
And that makes sense, it is a big cat and can be very ferocious when it wants to be. What we didn’t expect though, is for it to sound like this.
Many people have compared it to the infamous ‘Wilhelm Scream’ found in lots of Hollywood movies.
The video above was taken in the mountains of northern Pakistan and was released by The White Lion Foundation, a UK wildlife charity.
“The adult male is exercising his vocal calls to establish territory and to let females know he is in the area.”
