The clouded leopard may need a new Latin first name due to recent genetic studies that have revealed it to be more distantly related to the typical leopard than previously thought. This could necessitate reclassification to reflect its evolutionary lineage more accurately. Renaming could help clarify its taxonomic status and enhance conservation efforts by better distinguishing it from closely related species.

Why is the clouded leopard important?

Well, put quite simply, not only is the coat of a clouded leopard ay least as beautiful as those of any other wildcat species but as they are such an endangered species, their rarity alone makes them very special. I just read the other day, in fact that a coat from just the one adult clouded leopard can fetch $80,000 - that makes it very special in my book!! Oh, and PS. They're actually not a species of leopard but were given their name long before such technology as DNA testing existed...
