Watch a shy Pallas’s cat in its mountain habitat in the Himalayas, as it realizes there’s a camera outside its den. Aw!
This Pallas’s cat, also called a manul, is a resident of Central Asia
and the high mountain region of the Himalayas. About the size of a
domestic house cat, it’s been classified as Near Threatened by the
International Union for Conservation of Nature since 2002. It is a
notoriously shy creature. Motion-sensing “camera traps” placed in
remote ecosystems like this one help record the behavior of creatures
like the Pallas’s cat. Watch this one as it suddenly notices the
camera, and moves toward it for a better look.
