Park rangers in Kyrgyz Republic will have the resources, training and recognition they need to curb illegal poaching and wildlife trade, and follow through with apprehending and filing cases against poachers. This will raise the profile and income of park rangers and deter illegal hunting of snow leopards and key prey, resulting in their increased abundance and, over the longer term, improve conditions for nature tourism and livelihood options for local communities.
