Trail Cameras

The flat-headed cat is one of the most elusive wild cats in the world.

Data revealed in a new study show a steady recovery of tigers in Thailand’s Western Forest Complex over the past two decades. This recovery has been mirrored by a simultaneous increase in the numbers of the tigers’ prey animals, such as sambar deer and types of wild cattle.

The family is thought to be descended from the local Lassen wolf pack in the neighboring county.

The conservation group Panthera set up hidden cameras to capture an elusive flat-headed cat. Instead, they spotted the Eurasian otter — a species that hadn’t been spotted in the region in over 10 years.

Researchers observed jaguars rolling around and scratching themselves against tree trunks. Now they’re using that to their advantage as they collect non-invasive samples — from cat mats.

Camera trap footage taken between 2013 and 2018 revealed that about 55 endangered Amur tigers (commonly referred to as Siberian tigers) are now living in northeastern China.

This threatened species, also known as a moon bear, has been making a comeback after decades of bear bile farming.

Despite heavy conflict and rampant wildlife trafficking, new studies suggest cause for hope for the West African leopard population.

African forest elephants have become so rare in this Senegalese national park that they are simply called “ghosts.” But one beloved elephant took rangers by surprise.
