I have not finished scanning the whole series yet but here are
32-48. These scans are for your personal pleasure and
should be considered the property of the original photographers.
Due to some requests I have scanned these a little higher and
compressed them a little less; they are between 66 and 249K bytes.
I have no description list of this series at this time; I may
at a later time.
One more thing; this series might have been better named wild cats
since some of them are more like medium than big.
Enjoy.
Andy

Neofelis nebulosa - clouded leopard, mainland clouded leopard
The clouded leopard (Neofelis nebulosa) is a medium-sized wild cat inhabiting dense forests from the foothills of the Himalayas through Northeast India and Bhutan to mainland Southeast Asia into South China. The clouded leopard has large dusky-grey blotches and irregular spots and stripes reminiscent of clouds. It uses its long tail for balancing when moving in trees and is able to climb down vertical tree trunks head first.
