I was just trying to work out which of the moderators have seen Sunda Clouded Leopard. I have, you have, zooboy28 has. Hmm, which ones haven't...?

The sad thing is this wasn't even on my Chinese phone
I did manage to catch Carolina temminckii though.
Rotterdam Zoo, 01-03-2018:
22. Arctic fox (Alopex lagopus)
23. Fishing cat (Prionailurus viverrinus)
24. Polar bear (Ursus maritimus)
25. Serval (Leptailurus serval)
26. Pallas' cat (Otocolobus manul)
27. Spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta)
28. Swift fox (Vulpes velox)
Just out of curiosity, how is this "known"? Is it just from someone visiting and saying it looked like one, or is there a known origin for the animal? I'm not saying it is or isn't, just wondering on the knowledge.

Since I posted that, I had a quick look on Google and found this photo taken at Taman Safari Bogor which is definitely a Sunda Clouded Leopard - Neofelis diardi : Sunda clouded leopard
Did they only have one animal?

This is, I believe, the individual I saw. They only have one on-show. You'd have to ask devilfish really.
What are the pointers for differentiating the two species? I didn't think this one looked particularly similar to the one in Lok Kawi, which seemed to have a much 'blockier' facial profile.
They have very different patterning. Large paler shapes on nebulosa and smaller dark (sort of in-filled) shapes on diardi.
It's been awhile, but I finally made it back to a zoo, and now I will reclaim my number 1 spot... After a few more collections are visited over the Sumer...

What's The Grove?
And, Marsupial Carnivores don't count.
Ah, nice catch.
The Grove is a small nature park located in Illinois. The animal building contains several species of snakes and amphibians, as well as a small possum and owl exhibit. There are some white-tailed deer that can be found wondering the grounds, along with free roaming peafowl and Guinea fowl.
Care to provide photographs of this alleged Common Opossum, by the way? A second one being present in the USA would be quite significant news!
Under closer inspection, it is actually Didelphis virginiana. I apologize for this misidentification
