It occurs in Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Viet Nam (Mukherjee et al. 2010). It is widely distributed throughout the country both in the countryside or homestead woodlands and in all kinds of natural forests and wetlands. At the current time a small population thrives in the countryside when the largest population is still present in the Sundarbans Mangrove Forest with diminishing numbers in other forests (Feeroz 2013, 2014, Feeroz et al. 2011, 2012, Husain 1974, Khan 2008, 2015).

Its range countries are Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Russian Fedaration, Singapore, Taiwan, Province of China, Thailand and Viet Nam (Nowell and Jackson 1996, Sunquist and Sunquist 2002). Leopard Cat has the widest distribution, just after the Jungle Cat, living in all three forest ecosystems, the mixed evergreen, Sal Forests and the Sundarbans Mangrove Forest of the country (Asmat 2009, IUCN 2000, Khan 1982, 1986, 2015, Khan 2004, 2008).

Marbled Cats range from the Eastern Himalayas to Upper Myanmar and the Indochinese region including areas of Northeast India, Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Malaysia, Nepal, Thailand, Indonesia and Viet Nam (Medway 1969, Sunquist and Sunquist 2002). No record is available from wild; however, one individual was captured from Northeast region.

Bangladesh, Bhutan, Borneo, Cambodia, China, India, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Nepal, Peninsular Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Viet Nam (Duckworth et al. 2011). Of the several species of civets, this one has the widest distribution and occurs in almost all terrestrial habitats including parts of the Sundarbans having land connection. It is known to live in human settlements including the capital city of Dhaka (Husain 1974, Khan 2015).

It is native to Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Russian Federation, Thailand and Vietnam. It is possibly extinct in Korea (DPR) and extinct in Afghanistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Singapore, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan (Tilson and Seal 1987). Only viable population is in the Sundarbans in the southwest of Bangladesh, but tigers are rarely sighted in the bordering areas of the Chittagong Hill Tracts (particularly in Kassalong Reserved Forest and Sangu Wildlife Sanctuary) and very rarely in the bordering areas of Greater Sylhet (particularly Patharia Hill Reserved Forest) straying from the neighbouring forests in India.

The Leopard occurs across most of sub-Saharan Africa, as remnant populations in North Africa, and then in the Arabian peninsula and Sinai/Judean Desert (Egypt/Israel/Jordan), south western and eastern Turkey, and through southwest Asia and the Caucasus into the Himalayan foothills, India, China and the Russian Far East, as well as on the islands of Java and Sri Lanka (Nowell and Jackson 1996, Sunquist and Sunquist 2002). According to Khan ( 2008), Occurs in a very few areas in southeast (Chittagong Hill tracts) and northeast (RemaKalenga WS) where there are good vegetation cover and prey population. Vagrant individuals visit Gozni forest in north.

It occurs in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, India (Andaman Is.), Indonesia (Kalimantan, Sumatra), Lao PDR, Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, Sarawak), Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand and Viet Nam (Nowak 1999). It is restricted to the mixed evergreen forests of the northeast and southeast of Bangladesh (Khan 1982, 2008, 2015).

It occurs in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Lao PDR, Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia), Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand and Viet Nam (Sanderson et al. 2008). It is restricted to the mixed evergreen forests in the northeast and southeast (Aziz 2011, Khan 2015, Khan 2008).

The Indian subcontinent, including Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal and Sri Lanka (Menon 2003, Prater 1971). According to Blanford (1988), it was a common species in Bengal during 1850s but faced a great decline at his time (1880s) mainly due to sport hunting. The Sloth Bear had the widest distribution among all the three bear species found in Bangladesh. The species has historically been rare within the country in the southeast, east, and northeastern areas (Sarkar 2006 in Islam et al. 2013). Occasional presence of Sloth Bears has been recorded from Madhupur Tract, Garo Hills and in Sherpur District, which are located in the central and north-central regions of the country respectively (Islam et al. 2013). They were also present in Rangpur-Dinajpur area in northwestern part of the country some 50 years back (during 1960s) and were also surviving in a small population in Sylhet, Chittagong and Chittagong Hill Tracts with sightings in Teknaf and Kassalong Reserve Forest. It, however, disappeared from Dhaka, Tangail and Mymensingh forest divisions by then (Khan 1985). There is no reliable information on the presence of this species in Bangladesh, either in the wild or in captivity. Garshelis et al. (2008), Ahmed et al. (2009) and Islam et al. (2013) also concluded that the Sloth Bear might have possibly become extinct in Bangladesh.

It is native to Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, North Korea, South Korea, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Russian Federation, Thailand and Viet Nam (Abramov et al. 2008). Mixed evergreen forest areas in the northeast (Greater Sylhet) of Bangladesh (Khan 2015).
