Informations supplémentaires:
A Pallas cat, or Manul at Port Lympne Wild Animal Park.The Pallas cat was named after the German naturalist, Peter Pallas and has been affected by habitat degradation, prey base decline, hunting and has therefore been classified as Near Threatened by IUCN since 2002.With its long hair, stocky build and flattened face, this small cat has a broad but fragmented distribution in the grasslands and montane steppes of Central Asia. For the last 30 years The Aspinall foundation has been dedicated to returning captive bred animals to protected wilderness areas and reserves worldwide. It is through park visitors and short break profits that allows this conservation work to continue.
