Clouded leopards are found in Asia, mainly in forests or “shrubland” where the vegetation is rather intermediate (shrubs, shrubs), up to 3500m altitude.

They are very good climbers and go into trees to hide from predators, but they most often move on the ground. Carnivores, clouded leopards mainly feed on rodents, monkeys, birds, pangolins, and pig deer.

And conservation?

Classified as vulnerable with a decreasing population in the natural state, their numbers are between 3700 and 5580 individuals. For this reason, a European program was created bringing together different zoological parks to work on the ex-situ conservation of this species.
