| Sighting of Asiatic golden cat in the grasslands of Assam's Manas National Park | |
| 2007 Cat News (47): 29-29 | |
The Asiatic Golden Cat_ Catopuma temmincki_ is a relatively poorly studied felid, which occurs from eastern Nepal through southern China to Sumatra (Corbet & Hill 1992, Nowell & Jackson 1996). Its main habitat is forests, both tropical and sub-tropical (Nowell & Jackson 1996); however, it occasionally has been reported from more open habitats, such as shrub and grassland (Pham 1982). In India it is found only in north east India where it mainly occurs in the forests of the hills and foothills (Choudhury 2003). |
