. Popular official guide to the New York Zoological Park. New York Zoological Park. 106 POPULAR OFFICIAL GUIDE.. OCELOT. Our fine adult specimen, with very long canine teetli sug- gestive of those of the saber-toothed tiger, really belongs in the Lion House, but we dare not move it, for fear the change would in some manner jirove fatal to it. It is an animal of vicious temijer, and makes friends with no one. Thes half light of its cage is a welcome approach to the dense shadows in which it lives when at home. The Jungle Cat, (F. bcngalensis), is a small and incon- spicuous tj'pe, as befits an animal which lives by stealth in densely populated regions. The Ocelot, {FcHs pardalis), of South and Central America, is a small spotted cat which very often is called a "j^oung .jaguar." In size it is the third largest Fclis of the American continent; but for all that, it is so small that an adult specimen would not make more than one square meal for a hungry jaguar. It is found from southern Texas to southern Brazil. The little Margay Cat, (F. tigrina), is our smallest and also rarest spotted cat. It is no larger than a good-sized domestic cat, and its tawny ground-color is marked all over with round spots. The rarest American feline in our pos- session is the queer, otter-like Yaguarundi Cat, {F. agua- rundi), of a uniform gray-brown color, without spots. It is found in southern Texas and Mexico, and is so seldom seen in captivity that comparatively few persons north of the Rio Grande are aware of its existence. Qvir speciiuea came from Brownsville, Texas..
