Osa Peninsula, Corcovado and Arenal are among the five atlas places where the Tayra is recorded, with records gathering most in French Guiana, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil and Ecuador. The atlas holds 927 open records of this member of the family Mustelidae across 13 countries.
Recorded seasons differ by region, and each place page on the map shows the months of recording for that area.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Tayra as much as where it lives. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
Conservation status not assessed here yet, so every location is generalised to its grid cell.
