CSG Species Accounts: Geoffroy's cat (Oncifelis geoffroyi)
Geoffroy’s cats rested during the daytime either in dense ground vegetation or in tree cavities. Of 325 scats located by the researchers, 93% were in arboreal middens in the crooks of trees. The diet consisted primarily of rodents and European hares. [eng] |

CSG Species Accounts: Andean mountain cat (Oreailurus jacobitus)
Essentially nothing is known about the biology and behavior of the Andean mountain cat. The most detailed observation of it in the scientific literature was made at 4,250 m in the north-east of Argentina’s Tucuman province (Scrocchi and Halloy 1986). A single cat was followed on foot for more than two hours during late morning at a distance of 15 to 50 m, showing no fear of humans. [eng] |

CSG Species Accounts: Pampas cat (Oncifelis colocolo)
The long hairs on the pampas cat’s back (up to seven cm in length) form a sort of dorsal mane: when it sets its hairs on end, it looks larger than it really is, which is only a little bigger than a domestic cat. The recorded wild-caught weights range from 3-3.7 kg (n=3: Redford and Eisenberg 1992, Silveira in submission). In captivity, they have weighed up to 7 kg (Green 1991). [eng] |
