In spite of their name, clouded leopards are not actually leopards. They are small version of the big car family, noted for their commendable ability to climb trees and jump to amazing heights. The dark blotchy patches with a unique pattern on its skin distinguish the clouded leopard from others in the cat family. Clouded Leopard National Park in Tripura is famous for its captive clouded leopard enclosures. Clouded leopards are also found in other national parks in the north-east.
Clouded Leopard National Park is a woodland with an artificial lake. It is a part of Sipahijola Wildlife Sanctuary. The spectacled langur, an endemic species of Tripura is abundant here. Other mammals like leopard, jungle fowl, barking deer and wild pigs are also found in the Park.
