The cat with the flat head

A flat-headed cat is filmed in Borneo, three decades after it was thought to be completely extinct.

This small and rare feline is one of the species in danger of extinction, and in Asia there are thought to be around 10 specimens, while worldwide there are hoped to be 2,500, which is why this footage is considered quite important.

This wild cat has been seen extremely rarely by humans, and the information we have about it is scarce.

It is a feline whose habitat is tropical forests, near water areas, mainly in Sumatra, Brunei, and Thailand. It feeds mainly on frogs, fish, and birds, and as a rare feline, it is able to swim with great ease.

It has fur in shades of gray and brown, weighs a maximum of about 2.5 kg with a length of 45–50 cm.

The published images were filmed in Malaysia, in the Tangkulap Protected Forest, on the island of Borneo. The causes of the threat and extinction of the flat-headed cat, one of the rarest in the world, is the loss and reduction of its natural habitat, a change which, according to experts, has occurred aggressively.
