Colocolo, Leopardus colocolo Molina 1782 The next felid up should have been L. braccatus Cope 1889. Unfortunately I have was unable to find a good picture of the species. In any case, until recently, it was held to be a subspecies of the colocolo. The Colocolo is a small cat, only weighing 3 to 7 kg on average. It is near threatened according to the IUCN.

Last year saw me present a mustelid every Monday. This year, I'm going to feature a member of the Felidae every Friday. In so doing, I will follow the taxonomy given in Wilson & Reeder's Mammal Species of the World. Cheetah, Acinonyx jubatus Schreber 1775 Click for larger version. <source>
