Dear a,

There are fewer than 500 leopard cats left in the entire country of Taiwan,
and most of them live in Miaoli County. And massive development projects in
the area could doom the rest of the
population.<http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/Aiffk/zOo2/cQG.n>

The Taiwanese government is planning to build a bypass road for a highway,
a cemetery, a park, and the expansion of a motor plant in the cats' vital
habitat in Sanyi Township. Even though an environmental impact assessment
meeting was only recently convened, engineering for the projects has
already begun -- and the cats, such as the lost baby pictured above, are
already wandering into human areas, confused and
scared.<http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/Aiffk/zOo2/cQG.n>

Even if the projects' noise and increased foot and vehicle traffic don't
drive the cats away from their homes, the initiatives will divide the cat
co mmunities. Since leopard cats don't like to cross cement roads, their
species will essentially be split in two -- thereby reducing the chances
for the population to grow in a healthy way. Plus, if they do cross the
street to mate, they risk getting killed by
cars.<http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/Aiffk/zOo2/cQG.n>

These development projects shouldn't come at the cost of Taiwan's leopard
cats. Ask the government to halt the projects and save the cats before it's
too late!
