Ocelot Encounter



Coyote Peterson was wandering through the Costa Rican rainforest at night -which doesn’t seem all that safe- when he encountered an ocelot. Luckily, this was a half-grown cat that was somewhat used to people. Still, how strange is it that a wildcat will let you pet her? She also wants to play, and you know how cats play, by attacking! Peterson gets his eared chewed on and a few scratches. Don’t try this at home. As if you could! Let’s just hope that this ocelot’s ease around humans doesn’t lead her to a bad end someday.

Damn fool, he could have lost an eye or worse in a heartbeat.
Doing the cat no favors either.

Maybe that is the start of us getting domesticated ocelots.
Imaging coming home to a couple of those in your driveway !
That kitten is uber cute.
