Hiking in Ladakh for SNOW LEOPARDS | THE WHITE PANTHER with Kenneth Lawrence - Ep 3/3
Snow Leopard Wildlife Series - The White Panther & the Beasts of Snow
Watch Episode 1
Watch Episode 2
Three years after my first encounter with Snow Leopards in Spiti Valley, Himachal Pradesh, I embarked on another thrilling adventure to wild Indian Himalayas (in April 2023) to film and photograph them. This time, my destination was Uley, Ladakh, and my goal was to try and capture a Snow Leopard hunt on camera.
In episode 3 of The White Panther, we’re going to explore the Himalayas on foot; and we’re going to chance upon a couple of more species; one of which includes the Himalayan wolf whose numbers are dwindling. This series finale sheds a light on the challenges involved in tracking and filming wildlife, including hiking in thin air, as well as the unpredictability of animals.
Focusing largely on educational and awe-inspiring moments, “The White Panther“ is more than a wildlife series – it’s a testament to the resilience and adaptability of these magnificent beasts.

Filmed on the Canon R5C and RF 800mm f5.6 L IS USM. With Snow Leopards sightings being as far as a mile away from me, even 1600mm (with the 2x RF extender) fell heavily short. Thanks to the super 35 crop mode on my 8k sensor, we were able to reach a filmable focal length of 2400mm in RAW. Scaling that on a 4K DCI timeline, we reached an equivalent of 3360mm. Yeah, Snow Leopards can be far, man!
