The jaguarundi or eyra cat (Puma yagouaroundi) is a small wild cat native to Central and South America. In 2002, the IUCN classified the jaguarundi as Least Concern, although they considered it likely that no conservation units beyond the megareserves of the Amazon Basin could sustain long-term viable populations. Its presence in Uruguay is uncertain.
In some Spanish-speaking countries, the jaguarundi is also called gato colorado, gato moro, león brenero, onza, tigrillo, and leoncillo. The Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation of its common English and Portuguese name is IPA: [ʒɐɡwɐɾũˈdʒi]. It is also called gato-mourisco, eirá, gato-preto, and maracajá-preto in Portuguese. Jaguarundi comes from Old Tupi yawaum'di.
The jaguarundi has short legs, an elongated body, and a long tail. The ears are short and rounded. The coat is without spots, uniform in color, with, at most, a few faint markings on the face and underside. The coat can be either blackish to brownish-grey (grey phase) or foxy red to chestnut (red phase); individuals of both phases can be born in the same litter. It has a total length of 53 to 77 cm (21 to 30 in) with a 31- to 60-cm-long tail, and weighs 3.5 to 9.1 kg (7.7 to 20.1 lb).
Jaguarundi is one of the 10 less known wild cats in the world and one of the strangest looking of the small cats. They have slender, elongated bodies, small flattened heads, and long tails. They more reminiscent of an otter than a cat. Criadouro Onca Pintada, Brazil.

There have been no jaguarundi spotted in Texas in the past 30 years, but that will change shortly as the US Fish and Wildlife Service intends to reintroduce the endangered species to the Rio Grande Valley.

A docu-short about the search for a mysterious cat. Part one of a possible series...
In the black on a night long past
The fates of many in death was cast
A pact of blood, life gone awry
Destiny waits, the man chose to die
A soul in torment cannot rest alone
Freedom never will be shown ...show me!
To take thine own life is never to pass
Rendered final penance, tranquility cannot last...no!
So come hither to Purgatory’s child
Flaming embers burning ild
A ghastly essence, come take my side
I consume your soul
You can feel the ebbing tide
Draining lifeblood feeds his blackened core
Bound in service nevermore
So my spirit can now rest in peace
