Otocolobus manul (Pallas Cat): Narrative
Otocolobus manul is relatively the same size as a large domestic cat. It has long dense fur, which is generally gray or pale reddish in color. Its white guard hairs give it a frosted appearance. The dark colored fur on its underside is nearly twice as long as the fur on its back. It has a series of five to seven narrow black stripes running transversely across its lower back. [eng]

CSG Species Accounts: Manul (Otocolobus manul)
In the Lake Baikal region, analysis of 502 scats found pikas to form the major part of the manul’s prey (89%), with small rodents also frequently taken (44%). Other prey included susliks (3%), birds (2%) and insectivores (1%) (Fetisov 1937). Bannikov (1954) reported that one cat’s stomach from Mongolia contained the remains of 16 voles; another contained two pikas, one vole and a hamster. [eng]

Christina's Big Cats of the World: Wild Cats - Pallas' Cat
Named after the German naturalist Peter Pallas, the Pallas' Cat (Felis [Otocolobus] manul) is quite distinctive in appearance, and is often known as the manul. It has short legs but a large body, covered with long fur. Varying from light grey to yellowish brown, their long coats create a frosted look from their white tipped hair. [eng]
