Recent DNA analysis has established that the cougar is quite closely related to the jaguarundi and, surprisingly, to the cheetah (which is usually placed in its own subfamily). However, further research has shown that North-American cheetahs (Miracinonyx, now extinct) are close relatives of the Puma, but not of true Cheetah. |
