| _Felis bengalensis_ (The leopard cat) | |
| 1904 Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society (15): 144-144 | |
About this cat Blanford remarks that there is one skin from the Coromandel Coast in the Calcutta Museum and a live specimen from Jeypore (Madras Presidency) was in the London Zoological Garden. From this it would appear to be rather uncommon in the northern parts of the Madras Presidency and I think it interesting to note that on 21st January 1903 one was killed in a beat in Jeypur State, Vizagapatam District, and that on 1st March one was caught in Jeypur District. The skin and living animal I have with me at present. |
