This has been in my family for years but no one seems to know what kind of cat it came from. The story is someone got it from China in the 1980’s or 90’s. My guess is snow leopard but can someone please help me identify it? It would mean a lot to me thanks.

Edit: Thanks for all the helpful comments. I’m going to go through the proper channels now and make sure it goes somewhere legally where it can be preserved or teach others. Sorry to upset anybody we aren’t like red dead redemption out here poaching I was just genuinely curious. I rarely post on Reddit should I just take it down or is that a mod thing?
