| Collaborative conservation efforts for Geoffroy's cat and sympatric small wild cats | |
| 2024 Cat News (79): 4-5 | |
Geoffroy's cat _Leopardus geoffroyi_ can be used as an umbrella species among small wild cats, as its wide distribution overlaps with seven other small wild cat species. The Geoffroy's Cat Working Group GCWG was established to ensure the survival of Geoffroy's cats and other small wild cat populations, as well as their habitats in South America. Our mission involves raising awareness and implementing mitigation strategies to protect these species and promote coexistence with humans. Until now, our efforts focused on developing educational materials, implementing road signs and reducing conflicts in rural communities. |
