| Felid species in Intanki National Park, Nagaland, India | |
| 2014 Cat News (61): 33-33 | |
Two species of felids - clouded leopard _Neofelis nebulosa_ and leopard cat _Prionailurus bengalensis_ - were photographed by camera traps in Intanki National Park, Nagaland, India in 2013. This is the first record of these felids in Nagaland from a research based work. All the photographic captures were located in moist deciduous forest. In a tribal region like Nagaland where animals are hunted for consumption resulting in loss of many species, the photographic record of live wild species rather than a dead skin hanging is indeed a rare treat. |
