Although we did not get to see an Ocelot, I have learned that the Lower Rio Grande Valley is the last of their habitat left there are only less than 50 left in the wild. They lost much of their habitat to habitat destruction and poaching. Education on the preservation of the Ocelot and awareness is key to help keep the Ocelots from becoming extint. Laguna Atascosa is also home to other wild cats like the Bobcat, Jaguarundi, and Pumas.
