scientists are saveing snow leopards with something called a steam cell. the steam like cell is made out of tissue from an adult snow leopard, and creates ISP cells. "The power of stem cells is that they can differentiate into all the cell types in the body. This means, they have the potential to become gametes. In fact, mouse iPS cells have given rise to entire off-spring, so the possibilities are enormous," said Dr Verma. The snow leopard is a large cat native to the mountain ranges of Central Asia. Their high-altitude habitat and shy nature make accurate population counts difficult, but it is estimated that between 3500 and 7000 snow leopards exist in the wild, but are starting to decrease.
