In reply to Victoria. If you're looking for an author reference, just use ISEC Canada. All of our fact sheets have been written by members of our board of directors. The information is taken from the IUCN Cat Specialist group at catsg.org.

In reply to shimmercattie. No one knows how many leopard cats there are in the wild. It is impossible to count a small wild cat that ranges over most of eastern Asia.

The uninhabited DMZ between North and South Korea is an ideal place or them where they live undisturbed. During the Korean War my colleagues and I occasionally saw them at night. The probably found good pickings in discarded military ration cans.

I am astounded that any country, particularly Japan with traditional values, sees such diverse and incredibly beautiful wildlife as a “resource”, these valuable creatures of which there are many sub species need protection from such ignorance just like many of the larger cats where human greed, overpopulation and stupidity continue to push them to the brink. For Japan/China to want to increase their “quota” of wildcats taken from the wild for their skins by a further “500%” is abhorrent! It is also unethical unsustainable, shortsighted and violates the environment still further. Where human activity/influence destroys one species without carefully checking and re-checking the consequences, other species will suffer including plant life. Why are so many human beings so ignorant, so selfish, so callous. These animals are part of a natural eco system, humans have taken most fragile beautiful places close to the edge and in many cases destroyed them beyond recovery, grow up you fools, animals are not a resource, these are living breathing vital cogs in the wheel of life which affect us all. See the beauty and wonder in front of your incredibly short sighted eyes, value the diversity of life this life giving planet offers and stop breeding like flies and corrupting the world we all share with an unprecedented amount of offspring. The world and its wildlife belongs to all, our children and their children, not just to the greedy, cruel, stupid, money grabbing fur traders. You should all hang your head in shame for your part in the decimation of such iconic and staggering beautiful diverse creatures humans share this world with.
