Scientists used 52 camera traps to find out what was living in an area of forest – and they captured
footage of a male bay cat. The filming took place in Indonesian Borneo – in Rungan Landscape in
Central Kalimantan, an area where bay cats were not known to live.
The scientists are cautiously optimistic about the discovery of the male bay cat about 40 miles
outside the nearest area where the species was known to live. They have not released the exact
location where the filming took place, as the forest is not protected and the endangered species
is threatened with habitat loss and hunting across Borneo. [hidden link - please register]
