“Though hardly seen deep inside jungles, Fishing cats prefer to live near water bodies. Being adept swimmers they enter water bodies frequently to prey on fish. They are known to even dive to catch fish,” Pandey mentions in his post.
The fishing cat isn’t very hard to find in this picture, it’s hiding in plain sight. Let’s see how long it takes you spot it:
