The two species of clouded leopard are found in the jungles of suoutheast Asia and the larger Indonesian Islands. They are agile climbers, with long tails and very large fangs. They use these large teeth to kill prey signifcantly larger than themselves such as deer, goats, young bufallo, and wild pigs, as well as monkeys, pangolins, porcupines, and birds. They often ambush their prey from above.
Clouded leopards are named for their strikingly pattered coats, which are marked with large, cloudy blotches with darker borders. Despite their name, they are not true leopards.
