Wildlife officers in Thailand are nurturing leopard cat cubs at a national park rescue center.

The small, vulnerable cubs require intensive care to survive and eventually be released into the wild. Each cub is hand-fed formula milk with syringes by dedicated wildlife officers who monitor their health closely. The goal is to ensure these animals can fend for themselves once they return to nature.

These leopard cats are being cared for until they're strong enough to live independently in the wild.

The long-term vulnerability of these leopard cat populations remains high due to habitat loss and poaching, threatening their survival even after release.

What is the long-term climate outlook for this region?

Climate change could exacerbate threats like deforestation and extreme weather events that harm leopard cats. Conservation efforts must adapt to these challenges to ensure the species' survival.

The outlook highlights ongoing risks due to environmental changes.
