🐾Cacomistle
Centralamerikansk cacomixtler eller centralamerikansk kattfrett (Bassariscus sumichrasti) är ett rovdjur i familjen halvbjörnar som förekommer i Centralamerika. Det svenska namnet cacomixtler är ett lånord från det indianiska språket Nahuatl där det ungefär betyder "halv puma" eller "halv katt". Artpitetet i det vetenskapliga namnet hedrar naturforskaren François Sumichrast från Schweiz.
