Jaguarundis have short legs, short, rounded ears, an unspotted uniformly colored coat that occurs in two phases, a blackish to brownish gray phase and a foxy red to chestnut phase, which were formerly considered separate species (although now it is recognized that both phases may occur in a single litter). The cat resembles an otter to some extent. Genus of one primarily South American species.
