| Abstract | PROGRESSIVE encephalomyelopathy with cerebellar degeneration has been described in captive cheetahs (Palmer and others 2001) and in young domestic cats (Palmer and Cavanagh 1995). This case report describes the clinical and histopathological findings in a very similar condition affecting a young snow leopard (Uncia uncia) that had been born in a zoological park in eastern England as part of the globally coordinated breeding programme for this critically endangered species. | ||||

| Title | Multiple ocular colobomas in the snow leopard (Uncia uncia) | Type | Miscellaneous | ||
| Year | 2002 | Publication |
Veterinary Ophthalmology | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 5 | Issue | Pages | 197-199 | |
| Keywords | captive; Coloboma; cub; eyelid; ocular fundus; snow leopard; Uncia uncia | ||||
| Abstract | Two singleton female snow leopard cubs are reported with bilateral central upper lid colobomas. In addition, one cub had a coloboma of the fundus in one eye extending from the lower optic disc region. Surgical treatment by wedge resection was successful in both cases. Details of ocular colobomas in the other snow leopards reported in the literature are described and it is suggested that the exact etiology of the condition in this species may be discovered by further study of similar colobomas in the domestic cat. | ||||
