It's the national animal of Pakistan. Rarely seen these days, its habitat in Pakistan stretches from the Pir Panjal in Azad Kashmir to the Karakorums in Gilgit-Baltistan. The name literally translates as 'snake-eater', attributed to the popular but false belief that they'll occasionally kill and consume venomous snakes (although their having evolved particularly great resistance against snake venom may be true).
