While its range is very large, various populations are decreasing in many parts of its range.
The ocelot is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, and is threatened by habitat destruction, hunting, and traffic accidents. They stay with their mother for up to two years, after which they leave to establish their own home ranges. After a gestation period of two to three months the female gives birth to a litter of one to three kittens. Both sexes become sexually mature at around two years of age and can breed throughout the year peak mating season varies geographically.
