Ocelot

For my rainforest animal I chose Leopardus pardalis commonly known as an Ocelot. They live in the amazon rainforest in Central America. I believe that the environment ocelots live in will change in some areas it will become an oasis and in other areas it will become a marsh. Some adaptations include Ocelots resting in trees during the day and hunting at night. Ocelots have good vision and hearing. Ocelots have creamy fur with black or brown markings and are also very tutorial. They mark their territory with oil based urine. Ocelots are good strong swimmers ocelots and can mate any time of the year. Most of there adaptations will stay the same but others will change. They will gain greater lung capacity, they'll stop resting in trees and instead they will rest in shrubbery and burrows, they will have faster reflexes with their claws and stronger muscles .
