Hope this addition will help.

Count Comfect · 01-09-2009, 10:36 AM

Sounds like some sort of puma...

Grey_Wolf · 01-09-2009, 11:33 AM

Ok - here it comes - its the Jaguarundi.

Grey_Wolf · 01-09-2009, 11:34 AM

I will post a new one later this evening.

Which is an atypical member of the cat family (Felidae) that is unique in its speed, while lacking climbing abilities. As such, it is placed in its own genus, Acinonyx. = Cheetah

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-09-2009, 01:18 PM

Cheetah, I'm guessing.

***Tessar*** · 01-09-2009, 03:06 PM

Cheetahs can climb trees >.>

***Earniel*** · 01-09-2009, 05:34 PM

Well, Cheetahs can get into trees if they really, really, want to. It's getting out that is... less than graceful. (Makes good TV, though.

) But they're not really built for climbing, they can't withdraw their claws like other cats can for instance.

Grey_Wolf · 01-09-2009, 07:22 PM

Well done, GW, Tessar & Earn!

Will post a new one this later this morning.

***Tessar*** · 01-09-2009, 07:28 PM

O_o

but...

...I...

....

Oh, well any time. *grabs the credit and RUNS before GW notices!*

Grey_Wolf · 01-10-2009, 04:02 AM

LOL. Tessar, you mischivious mooter!

Which is a medium-sized cat native to European and Siberian forests, where it is one of the predators. The Eurasian variant is the biggest of the species, ranging in length from 80 to 130 cm (32 to 51 in) and standing about 70 cm (28 in) at the shoulder. Males usually weigh from 18 to 30 kg (40 to 66 lb) and females weigh 18.1 kg (40 lb) on average.[3] It has grey to reddish fur with black spots. = Eurasian Lynx

***Earniel*** · 01-10-2009, 06:02 AM

LOL, Tessar.

European lynx?

Grey_Wolf · 01-10-2009, 01:29 PM

Well done, Earn!

Ill post a new one later this evening.

Count Comfect · 01-10-2009, 02:35 PM

Hm, I always thought these

were European Links...

Grey_Wolf · 01-11-2009, 03:55 AM

Lol

Which is a small striped cat native to the western central South America, ranging from Ecuador and Chile across the Andes Mountains into Argentina and some neighbouring countries. Little is known about its hunting and breeding habits; however, it is believed to be a nocturnal hunter, mainly preying on small mammals and birds. = Colocolo

EarthBound · 01-11-2009, 04:11 PM

Hey you're speak'n on the Pampas cat, cute critter, also called a Colocolo [errrr, or is it the other way around?]

Grey_Wolf · 01-11-2009, 04:20 PM

Well, EB!

You may continue.

And welcome back!

Which is probably the most common wild cat in South America. It is about the size of a domestic cat. Its fur has black spots, but the background color varies from region to region; in the north, a brownish yellow coat is most common. Farther south, its coat are grayish. Melanism is quite common both in the wild and in captivity. = Geoffrey's Cat

EarthBound · 01-11-2009, 07:34 PM

I have longer tufts on my elbows and a longer tassel on the end of my tail then my better known cousins. I also differ with a distinctive fold of skin that runs along my belly. I'm not as social either, prefering fewer "wives" to hang with, may perhaps this is due to my hunting of smaller game. Still, my roar can be heard up to 5 miles away, and that is something never to ignore. There are only about 250-350 of us left wild in our corner of the world, so yes, we are very unique.

Grey_Wolf · 01-13-2009, 12:59 AM

Ozelot?
