This is a male Tibetan subspecies
Ooh that is nice.

I have a followup question. Some golden cats from China have a very heavily spotted coat, what is known as the "ocelot morph." Have you ever seen one in a zoo in China?
 
@Arizona Docent Hi I have never seen this morph, but I know two small zoos, Zigong Zoo and Suining Zoo in Sichuan Province, have this ocelot morph. These two zoos are actually half zoo and half wildlife rescue center, thus often get injured or orphaned local wildlife; but on the other side, the conditions and financial situations of these two zoos are not good.
