Common Expressions: Andean

Expressions Definition
Andean Cat The Andean Cat is also known as the Andean Mountain Cat. Its habitat and appearance make it the small cat analogue of the snow leopard. While it is only about the size of a domestic cat, it appears larger because of its long tail and silvery-gray, striped and spotted long fur. It is one of the least known and rarest of all felines; almost all that is known about it comes from a few observations in the wild and from skins. There are none in captivity. It is believed to live only in the high Andes mountains of Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. They have been sighted at elevations of 5,100 meters, well above the tree line. (references)
