The kodkod (also known as the gu00fciu00f1a or the Chilean cat) is a wild feline species located in South America. Ranking among the smallest cats in the entire world, the kodkod roams the dense forests of the southern Andean region in pursuit of prey. The kodkod numbers are in precarious decline, with the single greatest threat being its habitat loss and fragmentation from logging and agriculture, particularly in the temperate ecosystem of central Chile.
