SMALL WILD CATS OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA
Our team is dedicated to the conservation and study of three fascinating feline species: the Ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), the Jaguarundi (Herpailurus yagouaroundi), and the Margay (Leopardus wiedii). These animals play crucial roles in their ecosystems and are of significant interest to researchers and conservationists worldwide.
The Ocelot, characterized by its distinctive coat pattern of rosettes and stripes, inhabits a range stretching from the southern United States to Argentina.
The Jaguarundi, with its unique appearance resembling a blend between a small cougar and an otter, is primarily found in Central and South America.
The Margay, known for its arboreal lifestyle and remarkable climbing abilities, thrives in the canopies of forests throughout Central and South America.
Explore our website to learn more about our ongoing projects, research findings, and opportunities to contribute to the conservation of these iconic feline species. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in safeguarding the future of Ocelots, Jaguarundis, and Margays.
