Update from our snow leopard volunteer project to the Tien Shan mountains of Kyrgyzstan
We thought you might be interested in the results of the DNA analysis of the samples you collected into the tubes.
Tubes 10, 12 (CT07), 13 and 14/15 (collected by group 3) are snow leopard.
All other tubes, i.e. all from group 1, as well as tubes 9 and 11 from group 3 are Mongolian wolf. Group 2 did not collect any tubes.
Thank you for your efforts in collecting these and the very useful results they yielded. More details and conclusions will be in the expedition report.
