Golden asian malay cat

Another very rare cat species about which we know far too little… One of the characteristics of this species is the presence of a band of very white fur under the tail, the purpose of which is unknown. No other feline has this physical characteristic, with the exception of its Bornean cousin, the even rarer Bai cat (Catopuma badia)… At present, scientists agree that there are 3 different subspecies, including the Malayan golden cat, which is smaller than the other two and has a flamboyant reddish color…
In captivity, the Malayan golden cat is very rare, with only 12 zoos in the world housing them.
The Asian golden cat has been the subject of a breeding program since 1993.
