A curious snow leopard realised it was on camera while stalking sheep in Hemis National Park in Ladakh, India, and set itself up on a nearby ridge to watch the cameraman. <br /><br />The big cat stands staring curiously for a few minutes before lying down to watch from a more comfortable position. <br /><br />The filmer, Mark Andrews had been watching the leopard stalking its prey for some time before it disappeared over a ridge, only to reappear on a much closer hillside to watch Andrews' filming. <br /><br />Snow leopards are highly endangered and elusive creatures and are rarely caught on film. Locally, they are known as 'Grey Ghosts' for their ability to quickly disappear into the hills.
