How do margay raise young?

Margays, a type of wild cat found in Central and South America, typically raise their young in dens located in tree hollows or rocky crevices. After a gestation period of about 75 to 81 days, a female gives birth to one to four kittens. The mother is primarily responsible for caring for and nursing the kittens, which remain dependent on her for several months. As they grow, she teaches them essential survival skills until they are ready to venture out on their own around six months of age.
