Borneo bay cats are nocturnal and very secretive, and they live only on the island of Borneo. They have traditionally been a rarer animal, even in pristine habitats, but because of extensive deforestation, their already-sparse population is projected to decline 20% by the year 2020. There are likely less than 2,500 mature individuals in the wild, and there are currently no bay cats in captivity.
