The skeletal remains were found along a river bed and there appears to be tooth marks on the skull from either a predator that killed it or a scavenger after it died. Habitat here is lush tropical deciduous forest, with semi-evergreen tropical canyons nearby (the only such habitat known in Sonora). Apparently a first record for Sonora, although in 2020 David Mackay of Álamos shared a photo that another local in or near Álamos had sent him of a live jaguarundi in a trap (apparently the rancher had traps up to protect his chickens and other livestock). I imagine the trapped animal was likely killed, but I do not know of further details.

The NCI Reserva Monte Mojino had not yet detected this species on any of their wildlife cameras yet (fide Lydia Lozano), although the reserve has had 5 other native felids.
