The Geoffroy´s Cat Working Group (GCWG) actions are designed to reduce the threats of the species in the different places where it occurs. The actions are carried out based on the local culture and also on the results of scientific studies.

AGCCA&WG identify threats together with local people and wildlife managers, empowering them to implement threat reduction solutions, whilst improving local livelihood and oral health care. 

The Pampas Cat Working Group (PCWG) is a network of conservationists and researchers seeking to protect the Pampas cat (Leopardus colocola complex) and its habitat throughout its distribution in South America. To do this, we work together with the local communities where this small wild cat is found, to reduce the threats that are facing. The PCWG develops conservation projects in the five recently recognized species: Leopardus garleppi, L. colocola, L. pajeros, L. braccatus and L. munoai

The alliances of Ocelot Working Group (OWG) are fostered by biologists, conservationists, veterinarians and science divulgation that develop projects in collaboration with local communities in order to protect ocelots, margays and jaguarundis.

The work is done freely and in collaboration to share information, experiences, resources, research, and techniques that have been successful for the conservation of these animals with the objective to implement them in more sites.

The Clouded Leopard Working Group (CLWG) is the organized network of conservation partners who work with the local communities to mitigate the threats of clouded leopard, Asiatic golden cat, Marbled cat and their habitats from Nepal to Vietnam in the mainland Asia.

The Rusty-spotted Cat Working Group (RSCWG) is a global network dedicated to the protection of the planet’s smallest wild cat: the Rusty-spotted cat. Distributed in the regions of Nepal, India and Sri Lanka, this little cat is confronted with threats such as poisoning and road kills. RSCWG members are from the countries within the cat’s geographical range involved in initiatives aimed at safeguarding and protecting this species.

The Tiger Cat Conservation Initiative (TCCI) is a group of conservationists devoted to conservation actions of the tiger-cat species complex (Leopardus tigrinus, L. guttulus, and L. pardinoides) and all other neotropical small cats.

Fundación Con Garra is a Chilean non-profit organization. We aim to develop and implement strategies to mitigate the threats faced by the seven wildcat species native to our country (Leopardus colocola, L. garleppi, L. geoffroyi, L. güiña, L. jacobita, L. pajeros, and Puma concolor). Our work is based on dialogue and collaboration with the community. We seek to provide the necessary tools to support decision-making that allows for the harmonious coexistence between humans and wildcats.

Seeking Andean Wild Cats works to mitigate human-wildcats conflict through art activities (muralism and documentaries), and mitigation measures (corrals improvement and guard dogs). Their focus species are Andean cat, Colocolo cat, guiña, and puma.

OHCRA is integrated by young Costa Rican professionals from biology, molecular genetics, social sciences, communication, animal health, and conservation backgrounds. This diversity of expertise enhances teamwork, providing more alternatives for addressing the different threats that affect wildlife in local communities, delivering strong and sustainable outcomes through research and social action, and informing about the ecology of our native species and diseases. 

The Colocololo Project is a multidisciplinary group of professionals working to save Chile’s only endemic feline: the Colocololo cat (Leopardus colocola). Our work includes the reproduction of Mapuche hens, reduction of disease transmission, and environmental education.

Rock and Pampa — Uruguay Small Wild Cat Program is a conservation project dedicated to protecting small wild cats in Uruguay and southern Brazil. The program combines scientific research, environmental education, and hands-on conservation actions. We focus on studying, monitoring, and safeguarding these species, which are essential for the health and balance of ecosystems, while raising public awareness and promoting real, lasting conservation efforts
