- Snowstalker is an animal from the Beast Wars cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The majestic predatory cat Snowstalker once prowled the distant frozen lands and mountaintops of prehistoric Earth. Like all members of her species, she was typically a loner, but a chance encounter with the Maximals and Predacons would change her life... and also prematurely end it.
