Small Wild Cats

While most people are familiar with the bigger wild cats, there are actually 37 members of the Cat, or Felidae, Family. Starting at just 1.5 kg with the tiny black-footed cat and rusty spotted cat, many of the smaller 28 species are extremely endangered.

Carnivores of the Pampas

Co-written by ISEC Canada Director Pat Bumstead and Dr. Mauro Lucherini and the team at Groupo de Ecologia Comportamental de Mamiferos (GECM) in Argentina, this fascinating book highlights seven species of carnivore in Argentina; Geoffroy's cat, Jaguarundi, Pampas Cat, Puma, Pampas Fox, Common Grison and Hog Nosed Skunk.

Fact sheets on each species are followed by detailed reports from the field which outline the challenges faced by researchers trying to study these animals in a human-altered landscape. All profits from this book are returned to fund future research in Argentina.

Earthwatch Institute says of this book:

The pampas of Argentina, once a vast ocean of grasslands stretching from the Atlantic Ocean to the Andes, is now one of the most endangered habitats on Earth. For four years, Earthwatch teams working with Dr. Mauro Lucherini and colleagues on the Argentina's Pampas Carnivores project helped assess the viability of remnant grasslands by monitoring the activities of their top predators. Now a publication by Lucherini’s group brings the diversity of pampas carnivores to life, in two languages: English and Spanish.

Carnivores of the Pampas/Carnívoros de la Pampa is part field guide, part field journal. It provides a brief factual chapter on each pampas carnivore, from the unusual jaguarundi to the humble hog-nosed skunk, from the puma to the pampas fox. Most of these carnivores have been little studied, and their conservation status is unknown, making the research of Lucherini’s group all the more urgently needed. Written in collaboration with Pat Bumstead, president of the International Society for Endangered Cats, the profits from the sale of this book go to continuing Lucherini’s important work.
