Sunda clouded leopard conservation requires understanding key species traits. Using photo-identification, we estimated lifespans from minimum residence times, documenting the oldest wild individual known to date—a 6.51-year-old female. We discuss methodological limitations in female detectability and transient individuals in the population and...
