LEOPARD ID: OCELOT, MARGAY, ONCILLA

The ocelot is larger and more robt than the margay (weighg about 3 tim as much), and hunts for food maly on the ground (Goldman 1920; Emmons 1988). Also, the smaller size of the margay enabl to walk further out on branch than the Ocelot, and s longer tail enabl to more easily mata balance. Right now, the margay is the only t that has the jot rotatn sufficiency to climb down a tree head first wh hd feet facg the tnk.

In the 1950s or 1960s there were attempts to cross-breed the Ltle Spotted Cat (F tigra, also lled the Oncilla) wh the Margay (F wiedi) by Dutch t specialist Mme Falkena-Rohrle.

In Brazil, due to habat agmentatn, populatns the Atlantic Fort are more threatened than those the to s betiful thick, soft fur, Margay was one of the most heavily exploed ts for the fur tra until tra rtrictns the late 1980s. As Margays are smaller than other sought-after ts wh siar ats (ocelot, jaguar, leopard) took at least fifteen animals to make one at. However, illegal huntg is still a threat some areas for tra the pet and fur dtri and retaliatory killg when animals are found attackg Margay also suffers unr the ‘ocelot effect’: they tend to be rare areas where their range overlaps wh ocelot.
