Camera trap surveys in Turkmenistan found an estimated 60–80 endangered Persian leopards living in the country’s nature reserves, including breeding females in the Uly-Balkan Range. Conservationists say the population increase is likely due to improved habitat protections, growing prey populations, and long-term conservation efforts that are helping the species recover.
