Jaguarundi, Gray to Black; Others are Rust Brown Gold Color
From the five felines of Mesoamérica (cougar, margay, ocelot, jaguar, and jaguarundi) the jaguarundi is least often pictured in Mesoamerican art or featured in Mesoamerican myths.
Description
The large puma is a match for the majestic jaguar. The jaguarundi has a medium size head between a margay and ocelot (but a jaguarundi has a proportional longer body and longer tail). Baby pumas have spots but when they grow older the spots normally disappear. Only about one in a million adult pumas would still have spots.
