@wild_whisper0: The first newly discovered cat species in over 100 years has been found in Bolivia’s forests! 🌿🐆 Meet Leopardus tilcayo, residing in Bolivia’s Yungas cloud forests. This little cat has leopard-like spots, round ears, and long whiskers. An adult from Senda Verde sanctuary weighs in at just three pounds—smaller than your average house cat! DNA analysis shows it belongs to a distinct species. The name ‘tilcayo’ comes from local communities who have known this wild cat for years. 📸 Media: Fernando Faciole, National Geographic Society; Joel Sartore, National Geographic Photo Ark #NewSpecies #WildlifeDiscovery #Bolivia #CatLovers #NationalGeographic
