Find out more about the Clouded Leopard! Targeted for their beautiful furs with cloud-shaped patterns... The Clouded Leopard lives in the deep forests of Asia, usually at high altitudes about 2,000 to 3,000 meters above sea level. Among other members of the Felidae (cat) family, the Clouded Leopard is particularly skilled at climbing trees, and can hang from trees by their hind legs like monkeys. The cloud-like patterns on its fur is where the name Clouded Leopard comes from. However, people became overly attracted to their beautiful fur at the expense of the Clouded Leopard, resulting in many being exported to Europe and Japan from the 1960s to the 1970s.
