Pallas Cat (Otocolobus manul)


Pallas' cat (Felis manul), also known as the manul, is a small wild cat of Central Asia. It is about the size of a house cat, at 60 cm (24 in) long, not including its 25 cm (10 in) tail, and an average weight of kg (8 lbs). Its fur is ochre in color with vertical bars, which are sometimes not visible due to the thick fur. This cat has several features that distinguish it from other felines. Most strikingly, it has round pupils. Its legs are short, the rump is rather bulky, and the fur is long and thick.
