Pallas Cat and Local Community Following
Pallas' cat is a denizen of the steppes, one of the areas in Eurasia most heavily transormed by man. This situation becomes complicated by that most local people do not know about Pallas cat rarity and do not imagine the necessity Pallas cat to protect as endangered species. They bag Pallas cats as before for their own needs and for sale.
