Chinese Mountain Cat Totally Explained

Everything about The Chinese Mountain Cat totally explained

The Chinese Mountain Cat (Felis bieti), also known as the Chinese Desert Cat, is a small wild cat of western China. It is the least known member of the genus Felis, the common cats. A 2007 study found that it's more likely a subspecies of Felis silvestris; if so, it would be named Felis silvestris bieti.
   Except for the colour of its fur, this cat resembles a European Wildcat in its physical appearance. It is long, plus a tail. The adult weight can range from 4.5 to 9 kg (10 to 20 lbs). The fur is sand-coloured; the underside is whitish, legs and tail bear black rings. In addition there are pallid vertical bars, which may be hardly visible.
The Chinese Mountain Cat is is endemic to China and has a limited distribution over the northeastern parts of the Tibetan Plateau in Qinghai and over southern Gansu and northern Sichuan and is found in Datong and Daban mountains. It inhabits sparsely-wooded forests and shrublands, and is occasionally found in true deserts. It can live in environments as much as 3,000 meters (10,000 feet) in elevation.
   The Chinese Mountain Cat is active at night; it hunts for rodents, pikas and birds. This cat is protected in China, but it's still endangered due to the organised poisoning of pikas, its main prey; these poisonings either kill the cats unintentionally, or withdraw their food basis.
   Some authorities regard the chutchta and vellerosa subspecies of the Wildcat as Chinese Mountain Cat subspecies.Further Information
