The kodkod Leopardus guigna is the smallest felid in the Americas weighing about 2.2 kg. It also has the smallest distribution, being found primarily in central and southern Chile and marginally in adjoining areas of Argentina. They are carnivorous, eating mainly small rodents, reptiles, birds, and large insects. The major threat to the Kodkod is logging of its temperate moist forest habitat, and the spread of pine forest plantations and agriculture. (pics)
