Updated by johnrn1 to have it no longer be invisible, to have it not be configured as a jumper (since it does not have jumping graphics), to have the preferred object tooltip appear for the female and young, to have it play in-game sounds when picking up and placing it, to make the configuration file more efficient, and to correct grammar problems in the tooltip and animal info text.

Oncilla

With a silhouette and footprint resembling a house cat, the oncilla is small,
having an average weight of 2.5 kg, with males slightly larger than females.
The oncilla closely resembles the margay, and the two can be difficult to
distinguish in the field. The two cats are similarly marked, but the oncillas
pattern of rosettes tends to be less dark and blotchy than the margay's, its
fur is not as thick, its body is more slender, and its tail not as long.
Melanistic individuals are occasionally reported. Prey consists of small
mammals (rodents and shrews), birds, small reptiles, and amphibians. Oncillas
have been reported to prey on small primates in Brazil.
