A wild cat recorded in central Chile. Its gray coat bears oblique reddish-brown lines, with cinnamon-colored rings on the lower legs and dark rings near the tail tip. Five photo-verified records from 2015 to 2021 came from the Santiago Metropolitan Region.
Its ash-gray coat has oblique reddish-brown lines over much of the body. Cinnamon-colored rings mark the forearms and lower hind legs, while dark-gray rings appear toward the tail tip.
In August 2021, one animal photographed at Curacaví came to an outdoor water container beside a home and drank. The authors suggest drought may have contributed, but the cause was not tested.
An extinction-risk assessment has not been added yet.
