Full concentration required.

The final product.
According to Prof Vilma :
"It’s important to protect the leopard cat as it’s the last wild cat species we have in S’pore. It’s rare in S’pore and hard to spot as it’s found mainly on an offshore island. On the mainland, its numbers are very small. Hence it’s an endangered species in S’pore. "
