General Description:
Ocelots are small wild feline carnivores with a beautifully patterned coat that has resulted in a lot of human predation / hunting. They are found in Mexico, as well as Central and South America (with a few small populations in other locales). They are nocturnal, and hunt prey much smaller than they are in size, which they find through scent trails and excellent day and night vision. Ocelot are fiercely territorial, and will sometimes fight to the death in order to protect their territory. Ocelot are comfortable in trees, and also in the water, being adept swimmers. Kittens are the slowest growing among all the cats, and ocelots have the lowest resting temperature of any cat.
