The Asian golden cat (Felis temminckii) is one of Southeast Asia’s most elusive wild cats, often overshadowed by its more famous relatives, such as the clouded leopard and tiger. This medium-sized felid roams the dense forests of the eastern Himalayas, China and mainland Southeast Asia, including Cambodia, and maybe the rarest. Despite its adaptability to various habitats, deforestation and poaching have made this majestic species increasingly vulnerable.
