Pardofelis marmorata

Famed for its beauty, mystery and rarity, the Marbled cat (Pardofelis marmorata) is often compared to its close relative the Clouded leopard. The pattern of clouded patches on its fur resembles marble and what lends it its name.

Its no easy task but its all worth the effort…leading a mammal watching tours are just harder than birding tours . Super duper happy to spot him again this morning at 1.37am July27,2024.
