With only a handful of sightings in 20 years, Persian leopards in the Caucasus face immense threats from Soviet-era landmines and fences. This week on the Mongabay Newscast, journalist Kayleigh Long joins Mike DiGirolamo to explain how dedicated local conservationists on skeleton crews are monitoring these resilient big cats and working to prevent human-wildlife conflict. https://mongabay.cc/jv7AG2#Podcast #Leopards

@cks@mastodon.social It seems to fit the bureaucratic stereotype that Adams was lampooning that there would not be an actual leopard, just the sign. Mandatory per regulations, of course. Just in case foolhardy visitors decided to amble in whilst not even thinking about #leopards at all. #HHGTTG
