I saw a pic yesterday of a Jaguarmundi. I’d never heard of it before.
.
Jaguarundi are becoming naturalized in the US
I have seen two in the wild
some were brought to Florida about 100 years ago, repopulated, and can now be seen as far north as Virginia
also they are creeping through Mexico
I thought I saw one in my garden about a month ago, asked around and confirmed that they are indeed at least in southern Arizona
Some of the locals here claim there are small wild cats found here along the Brazos river. I’ve seen the cats they talk about, they are not a Jaguarundi.
I had a phone conversation with an expert on the subject that worked for the state of Texas in the wildlife area.
There are cats larger than house cats living along the Brazos. I’ve seen them and have a couple of less than perfect photo’s.
They are grey but lighter than the one listed in the article. But they have pointed ears and are not as long and low as the Jaguarundi. But they are longer than house cats.
