Yawning Jungle Cat

Yawning Jungle Cat

Jungle cat displaying its teeth in a very large yawn. Despite generally being active during the day, jungle cats are known to 'cat nap' in the afternoon sun. Jungle cats are largely solitary, not normally interacting with other jungle cats. They are fortunate in that they are quite general in their habitat requirements, requiring only adequate water and dense vegetation for hunting. They are the largest surviving member of the Felis cat family.
