OCELOT. 



Felis Pardalis. 

 French : F Ocelot. German : Ozelot. 



This graceful and well-known animal is most varied 

 in its markings ; the spots are also more of an oblong 

 shape than the usual round of many of the Felidae. 



The general colour of the coat is light, with dark 

 oblong spots, with drab centres. Those on the back are, 

 however, solid black. 



The ears are white at base, and black at top. ' 



The tail rather short, dark, and partly ringed. 



The whiskers are part white and part black, according 

 to the spots. 



The colour, perhaps, varies more than most animals. 

 Some specimens are beautifully striped ; others have 

 dark blotches like a dark tabby. Some examples are 

 red- striped. 



The Ocelot is about 3 feet in length, and is an 

 extremely lively and beautiful creature. 



It inhabits British Honduras and South America 

 generally. 



Its skin is chiefly used for making wrappers, and its 

 value is from 2s. to 4s. 6d., according to size, quality, 

 and demand. 



Several hundred skins are imported annually. 



The Ocelot brings forth about two young at a time.
