we are getting closer to them than ever before.

They rub particular rocks with their cheeks and then spray them with urine.
像这样用脸颊摩擦特定的岩石,再喷射上自己的尿液。
The two perfumes create a unique signature.

Any other leopard can know which of its neighbours passed this way, without ever making direct contact.
尽管没有直接看到彼此,雪豹也能判断出是哪位邻居曾经到此一游。

视频及简介

大山脉是地球上最壮观的景观之一,但它们是不可容忍的居住地,只有少数动物具备在极端海拔生存的条件。山里的动物是世界上最难以捉摸的动物之一,而这部电影为他们神秘的生活提供了独特的和亲密的一瞥。当一个母亲和幼崽被困在两个敌对的雄性之间时,就会看到四只雪豹聚集在一起。当他们与灰熊一起跳舞的时候,它们会与树木一起跳舞,以摩擦它们的冬天的皮毛,并在欧洲白雪皑皑的山峰上翱翔。
