The Margay is entirely nocturnal and hunts in the trees. It is one of two cat species, so adept at life in the trees, that it can descend a vertical tree trunk headfirst. It is almost never seen. This image was taken while staying in the Amazon jungle of Ecuador. There I completed a photographic series on the elusive creatures that live in the shadows of the rainforest.The Margay is entirely nocturnal and hunts in the trees.
