There's a population of them in Florida, as well... I tried to document them for about a year when I was with the US Fish and Wildlife at Merrit Island... They are very skittish, they live in the tall grass of the marshes, and they don't come out very much at all... but many people have seen them... what's odd is there haven't been any roadkilled jaguarundi found yet...

I've read about this one. The picture was different though, kind of striped coat on the one I saw. You had a little more to say than what I read. It's so interesting to know there are so many types of cats out there besides our beloved ones.

I don't think you'd want to back him into a corner.

Glad to see you found some more cats.

So many types of cats. I didn't know there were so many. I was glad to see the Jaguarundi don't live anywhere near me, as I think they would be too fierce. I have enough trouble with the other cats around here already.

The maid LOVES the Jaguarundi! The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum here in Tucson has a couple of them, and that is where she saw them! Beautiful!

Quote "The primary danger to this unique wild cat is through deforestation and habitat destruction - largely due to human intervention in nature!"

Sad thing is ,the deforestation will also become a primary danger to humans over time.
Stupid humans!! ;)

Oh cool! Maw went on a wildlife research expedition to Mexico to help a doctoral student trap, collar and track jaguarundi, coatmundi, and ocelot. They trapped one jaguarundi while she was there and collared it, and tracked several others. It was really exciting. Except for the ticks.
