Climate change is recognized as one of the greatest challenges to global biodiversity. The endangered snow leopard (Panthera uncia), an apex predator in high-altitude mountain ecosystems, serves important indicator ecological health. Understanding impacts climate on distribution patterns essential for developing effective conservation strategies. Based BIOMOD2 model, this study assesses current suitable habitats and project future changes under various scenarios, well evaluates protection gap corridor construction Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. results indicated total area habitat approximately 686,200 km2 conditions. remains relatively stable or slightly increases low emissions while predictions show a gradual decline moderate high scenarios. Currently, are fragmented, with connectivity among patches, posing threats population. Vulnerable primarily located Altai, northwestern Junggar Basin, central Tianshan Mountains.
