Ocelots are primarily carnivorous predators, not scavengers or omnivores. They mainly hunt small to medium-sized animals, such as rodents, birds, and reptiles. While they may occasionally consume carrion, it is not a significant part of their diet. Therefore, they are best classified as opportunistic hunters rather than omnivores or scavengers.

The primary scavenger that may eat an ocelot is the jaguar, as it is a larger predator that can overpower ocelots.

Other scavengers, such as coyotes or larger reptiles, might also feed on ocelots if they come across a deceased individual.
