Asian golden cat (Catopuma temminckii). Native to Southeast Asia, China and the northeastern Indian subcontinent. The species' fur colour can vary from ginger, red, brown, black to grey. They are also known as fire cats or fire tigers in Thailand. Depending on the fur colour, they are known as yellow leopards, rock cats, sesame leopards (spotted) or inky leopards (black) in China. “In 2008, the IUCN classified Asian golden cats as Near Threatened, stating that the species comes close to qualifying as Vulnerable due to hunting pressure and habitat loss, since Southeast Asian forests are undergoing the world's fastest regional deforestation.” .
