Very excited to share that our work assessing the genomic diversity of snow leopards has come out today in PNAS! Spoiler alert - they have the lowest genetic diversity of all big cats! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… @PetrovADmitri @snowleopards

Snow leopards were found to have the lowest genetic diversity of all big cats–a dubious distinction once held by cheetahs. It increases their risk of extinction in a warming climate. #Stanford-led #research by @kasolari @PetrovADmitri #snowleopards news.stanford.edu/stories/2025/1…

VERY excited to have this work out at Molecular Ecology Resources today - Next-Generation Snow Leopard Population Assessment Tool: Multiplex-PCR SNP Panel for Individual Identification From Faeces doi.org/10.1111/1755-0… @PetrovADmitri @_ellie_cat @AhmadIcup68 @nawazma_SL

Scientists have successfully trained rats to sniff out illegally trafficked rhino horns, elephant tusks, pangolin scales, and hardwood. via @guardianeco Read more @YaleE360: bit.ly/3CaCgVC

Keep your eyes peeled for his first-author paper focused on the Pakistan snow leopard sample set.
