Clouded Leopards are rare and shy in the wild, too.
Too many have been made into coats for humans.
I am not against the use of fur altogether, but I do wonder if it isn't a kind of murder for the purpose of theft, to covet another creature's skin. It isn't as if we need to wear mink or leopard or colobus monkey fur, to stay warm or stylish. And we no longer live in a world where there is any glory in having killed your own clothing.

Naut, the chain-link keeps the people away from them...
but I agree, since these cats can't go back to the wild, more realistic habitats would be ideal. But Cat Tails is a privately-owned park, owned by a couple who, frankly, do not inspire me to invest with them.
