Why is the Bay cat special?

The Bay cat is one of four Endangered cats in the world.  There are only two
camera trap pictures of the cat in the wild.  Other observations of the cat exist but
nothing is known of the cat in the wild.

We are trying to identify a site where we can undertake a more detailed study of
the cat and threats to its existence.  One observation suggests that the cat is
found in partially logged forests. If so, this is good news.
