Meet the Cat Family!: Latin America's Ocelot LineageLatin America would be overrun with rodents and other small animals, if these lovely little wild cats disappeared. But how many of them do you know? Ocelots, perhaps. Margays, though? The cute little guigna? Andean cats? Sit back and enjoy this introduction to those species and other members of the ocelot lineage. You're in for a treat, especially if you're under the very common misperception that jaguars are the only Neotropical cats! |
