Clouded leopards are one of the most mysterious animals in the wild. They lead solitary lives in Asian rainforests, with the exception of cubs who stay with their mothers for ten months before venturing off on their own. Clouded leopards are extremely adept climbers. They use their strong claws to help them climb up completely vertical trees and then return to the ground head-first, like a squirrel. They can even hang upside down by bending their hind paws around branches and securing themselves with their claws.
Sadly, these leopards are often killed by poachers for their pelts, and their forest homes in Southeast Asia are undergoing the world’s fastest rate of deforestation, so the clouded leopard population is steadily decreasing. This species is listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List and is federally endangered.
