The Andean Cat is one of the world's most elusive wild cats. So when one stumbled onto a football field in a small Bolivian town - researchers were stunned! Where did he come from? Is he healthy? Can he be released back into the wild?
This is the story of Jacobo, the Andean Cat - his capture, the people that looked after him and the international operation to release him back into the wild.
This episode features the Andean Cat Alliance. Guests in this episode include Dr Rocio Palacios, Dr Fabian Beltran, Dr Juan Reppucci, Dr Cintia Tellaeche and Lillian Villalba.

Lions, tigers and leopards are just some of the 40 species of wild cat around the world that are under threat. Join me, as we travel to every corner of the globe to hear the incredible stories from the people and communities working to study and protect all species of wild cat. Wild cat conservation is more than just cats - by protecting cats, we save other species in their ecosystems, we help local communities in their habitats and we conserve huge swathes of precious land across the planet. Cats of the Wild is an original, not-for-profit podcast by Andy Varvel.
