The margay (Felis wiedii) is found in Mexico, Central America and the eastern part of South America. Margays are spotted cats which look quite a lot like ocelots and share some of the same habitats; however, ocelots are rather bigger than a margay's 7 pounds, and have smaller eyes and shorter tails. Margays have huge eyes (for their nocturnal hunting) and long tails (for life in the trees), as well as very long whiskers, ankle bones that can rotate 180 degrees outward. They eat birds, reptiles, rodents and insects. They are threatened by habitat destruction and being hunted for their fur.
