| Jungle cat activity in a human-dominated agricultural landscape, India | |
| 2021 Cat News (73): 12-13 | |
The jungle cat _Felis chaus_ is one of the 10 small cat species found in India and most common cat which is widely distributed throughout the Indian subcontinent. Yet little is known about the ecology of this cat, although relatively better studied than other small cats in India, especially in the human dominated agricultural landscape in India. We provide evidence of diurnal and crepuscular activity of this small cat, observed opportunistically during November 2019 and February 2020, from the southeastern part of the National Capital Region NCR, India. The observations, although opportunistic and few, are important owing to occur in a dynamic and continuously disturbed human-dominated agricultural landscape |
