The Andean Cat – One of the Rarest and Most Understudied Predators on Earth (8 photos)
Meet the Andean cat—one of the rarest and least studied predators on Earth. Its habitat is high in the Andes, so it can be found at altitudes of 3,000-5,000 meters. What is known is that it is a small cat, about 60-70 cm long, with a long, fluffy tail, thick ash-gray fur, and dark rings on its tail.
