Andean Cat Leopardus jacobitus
The Andean mountain cat lives only at high elevations in the Andes, from 1,800 m (5,900 ft) in the southern Andes to over 4,000 m (13,000 ft) in Chile, Bolivia and central Peru. This terrain is arid, sparsely vegetated, rocky and steep. The viscacha makes up 93% of its diet. It is traditionally considered a sacred animal by indigenous Aymara and Quechua people.
