In recent years, growing pastoralism is changing this delicate balance, putting wild animals under increasing pressure for access to scarce food resources. Conflicts between nomadic herders and wildlife are on the rise, but a group of naturalists is developing a project that could solve, or at least alleviate, the problem, ensuring both the traditional lifestyle of nomadic herders and the precious wildlife and its most iconic representative: the snow leopard.
