Bornean Clouded Leopard or Neofelis Diardi (by AIRphotoHD)

The Sunda or Bornean Clouded Leopard was only identified to science in 2006, when genetic research indicated they were a separate species from the mainland Clouded Leopard Neofelis nebulosa. They have been separated from the mainland population for 2.8 million years.

“The Sunda clouded leopard is probably restricted to the Indonesian islands of Borneo and Sumatra. In Borneo, they occur in lowland rainforest, and at lower density, in logged forest.” Read more at Wikipedia and WWF, and check out our rare sighting of an African leopard on the African Wildlife Live Cam this week!
