The sand dune cat Felis margarita

According to scientists, sand dune cat, or Felis margarita is the only felid found primarily in true desert. However, it has a wide but apparently disjunctive distribution through the deserts of northern Africa and southwest and central Asia. The color of the fur is a pale sandy yellow over most of the body, with pallid bars which are sometimes hardly visible. In addition, it is white on the chin and underside. Besides, the mucosa of their eyelids is a striking black. Meanwhile, accompanying the large ears, the auditory bullae are also unusually large, giving the cat an enhanced sense of hearing. And this probably helps it pick up vibrations in the sand.
Noteworthy, in 2002 this small cat entered the list of Near Threatened animals, according IUCN. In particular, due to concern over potential low population size and decline.

The almost luminescent bark then matures and this means the color gives away to the rainbow effect. First, it turns blue and then goes though orange, purple and maroon. Altogether the tree gives the impression of a painted tree – or, perhaps, turned this way by some mischievous woodland fauna.
