Borneo Cloud Leopard
-
Orangutan Foundation, together with Tanjung Puting National Park, recently recorded some amazing, rare footage of a family of endangered Bornean clouded leopards (Neofelis diardi borneensis) – a mother and two young infants. To witness a family is extraordinary.
Link to videoCamera trap research is carried out throughout the forests of Tanjung Puting National Park, Indonesian Borneo, to assess species diversity and distributions. Albeit rare, the Bornean clouded leopard has been recorded a few times on camera traps in the National Park, but April 9th was the first time we recorded a mother with two offspring. For the population to be reproducing is an extremely encouraging sign.
