Primeros registros de ocelote Leopardus pardalis (Linneaus, 1758) (Carnivora: Felidae) en la provincia de Catamarca, Argentina
2021
Leopardus pardalis has a wide distribution in the Neotropical regions and its conservation status is of lesser concern worldwide. However, in Argentina it has a vulnerable state due to human activities such as hunting for their fur and deforestation. Based on the most recent publications about the distribution of this species, Catamarca is included as a possible site of presence, based on undocumented records of local people. The present study confirms the current presence of L. pardalis in the province of Catamarca through photographic records with a camera trap. With this record, urgent measures can be taken to preserve its habitat.
