The poem is gripping and compelling. The story is heart-breaking. Leg traps are terrible. Animals have been known to chew a leg off to free themselves. It is wonderful of you to bring this atrocity to our attention. The "ghost of the mountains" should be protected, not hunted. Thank you for your interest.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Your poem is lovely, Pam, and I consider it a crying shame when any species of animal faces extinction.
But those late-night commercials by the World Wildlife Foundation where the snow leopard mournfully whines in the background really get on my last nerve.
They show it again, and again, and again, and...well... you get the picture.
Anyhow, that's neither here nor there.
Here's hoping the snow leopard pulls through.

Comment from LaFrance
Great poem you wrote, besides having a good structure, flow, rhythm, and rhyme, your theme was on a important subject. I agree with you poachers should be shoot.

Comment from Violet WolfChild
Excellent job, Pam. Your poem is so honest and touches on a subject that I hold dear. It's heartbreaking to think of how many species are nearing extinction. I've posted something similar about wolves called Truce. Hopefully, someday others will see that the world is for all of us. Thank you for sharing.

It makes me cry Violet. We may have to kill poachers to save animals. Not sure I like that. That is why I suggested huge fines. But that will not stop the natives who are. It would be nice to know the demographics of the snow leopard poachers. Big fines and long jail time. Thank you so much for the extra star and for the wonderful detailed review
