They live in the high mountains of Asia. However, these beautiful animals are in danger. Today, there are only about 4,000 to 6,500 snow leopards left in the wild. Why are snow leopards endangered? First, their living space is becoming smaller. Humans build roads and cities, so the leopards have less room to live. Second, some people hunt them for their beautiful fur. Third, it is hard for them to find enough food because the climate (气候) is changing. To save the snow leopards, many groups are making great efforts. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has set up many protected areas in China, Mongolia, and other countries. In these areas, hunting is against the law. Local people are also trained to help monitor the leopards with cameras. These actions are working. In some areas, the number of snow leopards has increased. "We are happy to see more baby leopards," said a local worker. "But we still have a long way to go. We must continue to protect their home." ( ) 21. Why are snow leopards called the "ghosts of the mountains"? A. Because they are very scary. B. Because they are good at hiding. C. Because they only come out at night. D.

In the past, it lived in many parts of Asia. However, in the 1980s, people thought the bird was extinct (灭绝的) in the wild.

Today, the number of crested ibises has grown from 7 to over 9,000. You can now see them flying in the sky in many provinces of China. "We are glad to see their return," said a local farmer.
