Modelling the dynamic biogeography of the wildcat: implications for taxonomy and conservation
There is still no clear consensus on how to relate geographical variation in the morphology and genetics of the globally widespread wildcat Felis silvestris to its taxonomy and systematics. Reconstructing the dynamic biogeography of the wildcat provides insight into how current geographical patterns of morphological and molecular variation may have...Kitchener, Andrew C ; Rees, E.E.

An archaeological and historical review of the relationship between felids and people.
A review of the archaeological and historical records reveals several lines of evidence that people have had close relationships with felids. Almost 40% of felid species have been tamed on all continents, excluding Europe and Oceania, but only one species was domesticated. However, taming occurred mostly in five felid lineages,...Faure, Eric ; Kitchener, Andrew C
