WILDLIFE CONSERVATION LINKS Responsible wildlife management is no small matter to be taken lightly. How we manage our interactions with all species is a difficult, complex matter as there are numerous social, economic, cultural, biological and species-specific issues that must be addressed in every management decision. We offer the following links organized into three categories: Organizations, Research Resources and Map Resources. Hundreds of new web sites are launched every day. Accordingly, the lists provided here are not intended to be "all inclusive" but rather representative of the available resources. A listing in our Links Library does not constitute an endorsement of any political position, product, service or wildlife control technique. The highlighted text for each listing is an active link that will open in a new browser window.

They are diurnal and nocturnal, terrestrial but can climb trees, solitary and in pairs. Feeds on small mammals, birds, and reptiles. Jaguarundis travel widely in a huge home range (13-100 kms2) they den in hollow logs, tree falls and thickets. They are found in many habitats from rainforest to fields, savannas, and dense thickets in scrub, and can live in secondary vegetation near villages, where they may raid poultry. They may be more common in dry forest, secondary forests, and savannas than in rainforests.

Smallest of all felines, the blackfooted cat totals less than a foot and a halfin Is it threatened or endangered? Black-footed (cats) are an endangered species
http://www.livingdesert.org/sgblackfootcat.html
What does it look like? Black-footed cats have tawny fur with large black spots, and black stripes on their front legs, cheeks and tails. They are named this because the undersides of their feet are black.
  • Smallest of all felines, the black-footed cat totals less than a foot and a half in length. Their short, ringed tails are tipped with black. They weigh only 4 pounds. Their skulls are broad with large rounded ears.
Where in the world?
Black-footed cats inhabit part of Botswana including the Kalahari Desert, Namibia and the interior of South Africa.
What does it eat?
Their diet consists mostly of mice and other small rodents, and perhaps small reptiles which they unearth by digging with powerful forepaws. The black-footed cat is also known to feed on beetles and spiders.
What are some characteristics and behavior?
Black-footed cats are nocturnal, hiding during the day in holes made by springhaas, or in hollows that have formed in abandoned termite mounds. This habit of sometimes sheltering in insect mounds has led to its South African nickname of "ant hill tiger."
What about offspring?

26. The Living Desert Caracal
These (cats) inhabit dry desert areas, savannas, Acacia scrub, arid steppes faces, caracalsare one of the most handsome felines. Is it threatened or endangered?
http://www.livingdesert.org/sgcaracal.html
What does it look like?
The caracal is a powerful, medium-sized cat with a slender body and slim legs. Their long, pointed ears, tipped with two-inch tufts of black hair, give it a lynx-like appearance.
  • The reddish brown overcoat fades to white on their undersides, from the chin and throat to belly and tail, while the pelage is short and very soft. Their eyes are ringed in white with a black line running from the anterior corner of their eyes to their noses. Average shoulder height is 17 inches. Their head and body reaches a length of 20 inches, and tails may reach nine inches. Caracals weigh from 35 to 50 pounds.
Where in the world?
Nicknamed "desert lynx," caracals are found from central India, west through Asia to Israel and Jordan, and south into the Arabian peninsula and African continent.
These cats inhabit dry desert areas, savannas, Acacia scrub, arid steppes and mountains. With their long, tasseled ears and expressive faces, caracals are one of the most handsome felines.
What does it eat?
Carnivores, caracals feed on small birds, rodents and other mammals. With their supple body and swift reflexes, they are adept hunters in a broad range of situations. Hunting often at night, caracals depend on stealth to catch prey.

Exotic Species are Decimating America's Native Wildlife

By Sally Deneen In one corner of the United States, mountain goats traipse across the fragile alpine flowers that speckle the snowline of Washington's craggy Olympic Mountains. They look beautiful, but the goats don't belong there. Seattle newspaperman E.B. Webster and his mountaineer club 80 years ago pushed to introduce the shaggy-bearded animals to the majestic mountains to boost tourism. So a dozen goats arrived, and the numbers quickly grew to a high of 1,200. The ubiquitous European starling.
© Dan Sudia Meanwhile, wolves are native to the same mountains of Olympic National Park, but don't expect to hear their nocturnal howls anytime soon. Neighbors objected when rangers proposed reintroducing the park's missing predator a few years ago. To some, it's simple: alien goats, OK; native wolves, not OK.

Farther down the island chain, the federal government has forced builders to stop projects in the path of the endangered Lower Keys marsh rabbit. But the feds are virtually powerless when it comes to protecting the rabbits from residents' free-ranging house cats, dogs, and those ubiquitous suburban freeloaders, raccoons. These animals are among the rabbits' other threats, according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

History of the LIOC-ESCF

The History of LIOC - Back in the 1950's, ocelots and margays were commonly sold in retail pet stores. People who knew nothing about the proper care and feeding of these non-domestic cousins to the domestic cat, sold them to others who were equally ignorant of their special dietary and environmental needs. This resulted in calcium deficiencies, intestinal blockages, unnecessary canine teeth removals, and worse. Something had to be done and Catherine Cisin, a caring lady from, NewYork, was the woman to do it. She formed the Long Island Ocelot Club, and designed it to be a clearing house of husbandry information. Early LIOC newsletters depict an era long past. Back then, most ocelots and margays were jungle caught, and legally imported into America as kittens. The majority were a by-product of the fur trade, and the mortality rate was 50%. If left when their mother's were killed for their pelts, all would have perished. Captive-breeding was in its infancy, a trial-and-error learning process. In the November 1959 LIOC Newsletter, Lillian Ward of California, shared the news of a pair of ocelots expecting the birth of their third litter in as many years. Her first litter a male ocelot was born December 1957 and twin ocelots were born in November 1958.
Yes, times were different, but wild cat ownership still created controversy, even though largely confined to the small felids, unlike today's larger felines. These jungle cats were different, interesting, and to some, frightening.

Florida panther (Photo courtesy Ocelots once prowled the dense, chaparral thickets of south and east Texas and the Gulf Coast. The ocelot has been listed as endangered in the United States since 1972 and is also endangered in Mexico. Its historic range took in Arizona and Texas, south to Central and South America. Today ocelots are found in a few small areas in South Texas, and they are extirpated from Arizona.
