| Andean Cat Alliance. Stratetic Plan 2011-2016 | |
| 2011 Full Book | |
The IUCN endangered Andean cat (_Leopardus jacobita_) is considered the most threatened felid in the Americas and is listed among the five most threatened cats in the world. Until recently the Andean cat was also considered one of the least known felines in the world, but in the last decade, and thanks to a coordinated effort of the Andean Cat Alliance (AGA) members, a much better understanding of the species' biology and conservation needs has been achieved. Furthermore, and largely through the implementation of AGA's Action Plan for the Andean Cat Conservation (PAGA) formulated in 2004, great advances have been made to protect the Andean cat and its habitat, and to increase public knowledge of its conservation plight. |
