African gowden cat
The African gowden cat (Caracal aurata) is a wild cat that bides in the rainforests o Wast an Central Africae, an haes been categorised as Vulnerable bi IUCN. <!--It is a close relative of both the caracal and the serval. Previously, it was placed in the genus Profelis. Its body size ranges from 61 to 101 cm (24 to 40 in) with a 16 to 46 cm (6.3 to 18.1 in) long tail.
Characteristics
The African golden cat has a fur colour ranging from chestnut or reddish-brown, greyish brown to dark slaty. Some are spotted, with the spots ranging from faded tan to black in colour. In others the spotting pattern is limited to the belly and inner legs. Its undersides and areas around the eyes, cheeks, chin, and throat are lighter in colour to almost white. Its tail is darker on the top and either heavily banded, lightly banded or plain, ending in a black tip. Cats in the western parts of its range tend to have heavier spotting than those in the eastern region. Two color morphs, a red and a grey phase, were once thought to indicate separate species, rather than colour variations of the same species. Grey skins have hairs that are not pigmented in their middle zones, whereas hair of red skins is pigmented intensively red. Hair of melanistic skins is entirely black.
Skins of African golden cats can be identified by the presence of a distinctive whorled ridge of fur in front of the shoulders, where the hairs change direction. It is about twice the size of a domestic cat. Its rounded head is very small in relation to its body size. It is a heavily built cat, with stocky, long legs, a relatively short tail, and muckle paws. Body length usually varies within the range of 61 to 101 cm (24 to 40 in). Tail length ranges from 16 to 46 cm (6.3 to 18.1 in), and shoulder height is about 38 to 55 cm (15 to 22 in). The cat weighs around 5.5 to 16 kg (12 to 35 lb), with males being mair muckle nor females.

Distribution and habitat
The African golden cat inhabits tropical forests from sea level to 3,000 m (9,800 ft). It prefers dense, moist forest with heavy undergrowth, and is often found close to rivers, but it may be found in cloud forest, bamboo forests, and high moorland habitats as weel. The cat is found from Senegal in the west to Kenya in the east, and ranges as far north as the Central African Republic and as far south as northern Angola.

African gowden cat
Distribution and habitat
In Guinea's National Park of Upper Niger, it was recorded during surveys conducted in 1996 to 1997.
In Uganda's Kibale National Park, an African golden cat was recorded in an old growth forest patch in 2008. In Gabon's Moukalaba-Doudou National Park, it was recorded in forested areas during surveys in 2012.
Ecology an behaviour
Due to its extremely reclusive habits, little is known about the behaviour of African golden cats. They are solitary animals, and are normally crepuscular or nocturnal, although they have been observed hunting during the day as weel, depending on the availability of local prey.
African golden cats are able to climb, but hunt primarily on the ground. They mainly feed on tree hyrax an rodents, but hunt birds, small monkeys, duikers, young of giant forest hog, and small antelope an aw. They have been known to take domestic poultry and livestock as weel.
Reproduction
Knowledge of the African golden cat's reproductive habits is based on captive individuals. The female gives birth to one or two kittens after a gestation period of around 75 days. The kittens weigh 180 to 235 g (6.3 to 8.3 oz). Their eyes open within a week of birth, and they are weaned at 6–8 weeks. They grow and develop rapidly in comparison with other small cat species. One individual was reported to be scaling a 40-cm wall within 16 days of birth, reflecting a high degree of physical agility from an early age. Females reach sexual maturity at 11 months of age, and males at around 18 months. In captivity, they live up to 12 years. Their lifespan in the wild is unkent.
Threats
The African golden cat is threatened by extensive deforestation of tropical rainforests, their conversion to oil palm plantations coupled with mining activities and road building, thus destroying its essential habitat. It is threatened by bushmeat hunting as weel, particularly in the Congo Basin.-->

Cabanagem
The Cabanagem wis the revolt in which blacks, Indians an mestizos protestit against the poleetical elite an teuk pouer in 1835. The entry o the Heich Amazonas (Manaus the day, which wis the cradle o the ceety in the Westren Amazon) in Cabanagem wis crucial for the birth o the current state o the Amazon.

Wi that thare wis an integration o fowk surroundin sicweys fairmin the state, thanks tae Cabanagem. the ceety wis biggit acause o the rubber trees.
The rubber boom
Manaus wis at the centre o the Amazon region's rubber boom durin the late 19t century. For a time, it wis "ane o the gaudiest ceeties o the warld" Ane historian haes written, "No extravagance, however absurd, deterred" the rubber barons. "If ane rubber baron boucht a vast yacht, anither would install a tame lion in his villa, an a third would watter his horse on champagne." The decadence extendit tae a grand opera hoose, vast domes an gildit balconies, an marble, gless, an crystal, frae aroond Europe. The opera hoose cost ten million (public-funded) dollars, but its foolhardiness wis demonstratit bi the daith bi yellae fiver o hauf the members o ane visitin opera troupe. The opera hoose, cried the Teatro Amazonas, still exists the day; it haes been restored, wis uised in the Werner Herzog film Fitzcarraldo, an efter a teep o interlude lastin almaist 90 years, presents operas ance again.
When the seeds o the rubber tree wur smuggled oot o the Amazon region, Brazil lost its monopoly on the product an Manaus fell intae poverty. The rubber boom haed broucht electricity tae the ceety afore it arrived in mony European ceeties, but the end o the rubber boom made the generators too expensive tae run, an the ceety lost airtifeecial lichtin for years.
The declaration o a duty free zone in Manaus addit tae the economic prosperity o the ceety.
