The ‘Fishing Cat’ (Prionailurus viverrinius) is the 2nd largest Wild Cat in Sri Lanka, with males weighing between 7-16 KG. Unlike other felines, these cats prefer to inhabit water associated habitats. The Fishing Cat is called ‘Hadun Diviya’ (හඳුන් දිවියා) in Sinhalese. Due to their appearance, these cats are often mistaken for juvenile leopards.
As per their name, a large portion of the Fishing Cat’s diet consists of fish.
Fishing Cats are mostly found in the lowlands of Sri Lanka, close to wetland habitats even in urban and suburban areas. These cats are highly elusive, and quite difficult to see in the wild.
The Fishing Cat pictured below is a cub, and was left stranded near the Maradanmaduwa Bungalow at Wilpattu National Park several years ago.
