Tim writes: Chinese Mountain Cat (also known as Chinese Desert or Steppe Cat) is a rare and little-known species that is endemic to a small area of western central China on the north-east edge of the Tibetan Plateau. They occur at high altitude (2800-4100 m asl) in grasslands and are mainly nocturnal and wary. I have seen a small number of them previously, but always at a distance and usually partially hidden among vegetation. But this one was right next to the road enabling me to take a couple of close photographs from the car. It was pitch dark when I took this, lit only by a torch (no flash).
