Clouded leopard

The clouded leopard (Neofelis nebulosa) is a wild cat occurring from the Himalayan foothills through mainland Southeast Asia into China. Since 2008, it is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. Its total population is suspected to be fewer than 10,000 mature individuals, with a decreasing population trend, and no single population numbering more than 1,000 adults.[2] It is also known as the mainland clouded leopard, to distinguish it from the Sunda clouded leopard (Neofelis diardi).[3] It is the state animal of the Indian state of Meghalaya.[4]
