A new study reveals that four wild cat species living in the same rainforest habitat in Guatemala reduce competition for food by hunting in different vertical zones, some in trees and others on the ground.
Researchers from Oregon State University and the Wildlife Conservation Society of Guatemala used trail camera footage and DNA analysis of scat to study jaguars, pumas, ocelots and margays in the Maya Biosphere Reserve. They found that jaguars and ocelots primarily hunted ground-dwelling prey, while pumas and margays more frequently consumed animals that live in trees.
