Hello, nice community today for DailyCelestialChallenge | Tuesday-AnimalKingdom
I'll talk about the predator called Panthera Uncia

Snow leopard, also called ounce, large long-haired Asian cat, classified as either Panthera uncia or Uncia uncia in the family Felidae. The snow leopard inhabits the mountains of central Asia and the Indian subcontinent, ranging from an elevation of about 1,800 metres (about 6,000 feet) in the winter to about 5,500 metres (18,000 feet) in the summer.

Its soft coat, consisting of a dense insulating undercoat and a thick outercoat of hairs about 5 cm (2 inches) long, is pale grayish with dark rosettes and a dark streak along the spine. The underparts, on which the fur may be 10 cm (4 inches) long, are uniformly whitish. The snow leopard attains a length of about 2.1 metres (7 feet), including the 0.9-metre- (3-foot-) long tail. It stands about 0.6 metre (2 feet) high at the shoulder and weighs 23–41 kg (50–90 pounds). It hunts at night and preys on various animals, such as marmots, wild sheep, ibex (Capra), and domestic livestock. Its litters of two to four young are born after a gestation period of approximately 93 days.

This species, has something unusual in felines, has a well-defined date for reproduction. In general, they mate at the end of winter, characterized by a marked increase in dialing and calling. The snow leopards have a gestation period of 90 to 100 days, so the puppies are born between April and June. The estrous or reproductive cycle lasts five to eight days, and males tend not to look for another mate after mating, probably because the estrus season is estrus and they do not have time to look for another mate. The pair of snow leopards copulate between 12 and 36 times a day. The mother gives birth in a cave or rocky crevice. The litter can vary from 1 to 5 puppies, but on average they are 2.

Puppies are blind and helpless at the time of birth, but already have a thick layer of skin, and weigh from 320 to 567 grams (11 to 20.0 oz). The eyes open around seven days, and the puppies can walk at five weeks and are fully highlighted at 10 weeks. Also when they are born, they have full black spots and become spots as they grow into adolescence.
