Hi people, it's Leo here. Today I'll be talking about a very majestic mountain cat called the pallas cat. Now pallas cats live throughout central Asia, from western Iran to western China. Pallas cats prefer cold, dry, rocky hill tops living in grasslands way up high as well as desert areas but what I love the most about them is that they look so very close to my family's youngest cat Miko - big eyes, lots of fur and big paws.. She's like our own version of a pallas cat, She's majestic, beautiful and so adorably cute just like pallas cats and boy are they cute. Check out this photo called “When Mother Says Run,” by Shanyuan Li, a Chinese photographer. Voted one of the best nature photographs of 2020 by the UK's Natural History Museum in the wildlife photographer of the year competition, Mr Li spent six years working in high mountainous areas of China, taking pictures of the cats to get this shot. Someday I hope I can go and see one in the wild for myself and I hope you all agree with me that they are very majestic beasts but sadly also a near threatened species.

Until next time
