Leopard Cats are Losing their Last Foothold in Taiwan

Recently there has been a on-going news in Taiwan concerning the threat to the survival of the Leopard Cats, an endangered species, and the conservation of their natural habitat.

I strongly oppose the Sanyi bypass route construction plans! There is not much traffic on weekdays in the area. Traffic congestion on holidays and peak hours can be resolved by traffic control and further allocation of parking spaces. The bypass route does not benefit our county and it breaches local ecology and wildlife will suffer! We request the Miaoli County magistrate and the government to stop this project!

It has been sometime since I saved an email about the cris threatening the leopard cats in this area of Taiwan. I will check some on the web to determine their current status. However I will post here my hope that they have advocates living in Taiwan who have already saved at least some of the habitat there for the natural use of the leopard cats. I, too, love all cats and would hate to read in the future they had gone extinct in the wild with only a unsustainable remnant still alive in zoos there 🙁 …again I pray this will NOT come to pass.
