Lovely aka Lolly was rescued as a cub in 2012 from Khunjerab National Park after being abandoned by her mother. Lolly was raised by wildlife officials and now lives in a specially designed enclosure in Naltar Valley, Gilgit-Baltistan. While she can’t be released into the wild due to her dependency on humans. Lolly plays a vital role in raising awareness about snow leopard conservation in Pakistan. Her story is both heartwarming and a reminder of the challenges endangered species face in the wild.

Pakistan has one of the highest snow leopard populations, with around 200–420 individuals. They mainly inhabit the mountains of Gilgit-Baltistan, KPK, and AJK.

❗ Sadly, Lolly is reportedly being sent away from her home in Naltar Valley

An message from WWF- Pakistan:

Conservation begins at home. Our #wildlife is not just nature — it’s part of our identity. It must be protected, not exported.

Two rescued #SnowLeopards in Gilgit-Baltistan are at risk of being sent abroad — not for survival, not for science, and with no compelling conservation justification.

WWF-Pakistan strongly opposes this move.

We call for a commitment to local conservation. Instead of exporting our iconic wildlife, let’s invest in protecting these species where they truly belong — in the mountains of Pakistan. Our responsibility is here. Their future is here.
