EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration showcases the Uncia uncia, commonly known as the snow leopard, as depicted in A Monograph of the Felidae, or Family of the Cats, published in 1833 by Daniel Giraud Elliot. The snow leopard is a large, powerful feline native to the mountain ranges of Central and South Asia. With its distinctive white fur and black spots, this elusive big cat is well-adapted to its harsh, snowy habitat. The illustration, beautifully hand-coloured, was produced from watercolour drawings by renowned natural history artists Joseph Wolf and Joseph Smit. The intricate detail and lifelike quality of the artwork provide a captivating glimpse into the natural history of this magnificent mammal. Daniel Giraud Elliot, an American naturalist and zoologist, dedicated himself to the study of the Felidae family, which includes big cats such as lions, tigers, and leopards. His comprehensive monograph, featuring 43 hand-coloured lithographs, was a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of felids during the 19th century. The snow leopard is a member of the Felidae family, order Carnivora, and suborder Feliformia. It belongs to the Feloidea superfamily, Felinae subfamily, and Felidae family. This classification places it within the Epitheria, a group of mammals that includes primates, elephants, and hippos, and the Mammalia, the class of mammals. Despite being a daytime animal, the snow leopard is often depicted in popular culture as a nocturnal creature. This misconception highlights the importance of accurate scientific documentation, such as Elliot's monograph, to promote a better understanding of these magnificent animals and their natural habits.
