    A zoo curator friend of mine at the Texas Zoo, who passed away a couple years ago, Jay Jensen was attempting to gather evidence that jaguars still survive in South Texas. Similar to thylacines, there have been occasional sightings by untrained observers...perhaps mistaken ocelots or cougars, but perhaps not? My friend Jay would had enjoyed seeing this video.

    Wow!!! Thank you!! "During the 1800s, jaguars spanned all over the United States, from California to the Carolinas. But hunting played a significant role in decreasing their numbers. In 1949, the last female jaguar in the United States was hunted and killed in Arizona. Since then, some jaguars have been spotted in Arizona, near the US-Mexico border. There is a possibility of the jaguar returning to the USA - after nearly 80 years! One such jaguar, “El Jefe” has been spotted in the USA a few times over the past decade" They eat bears too...Love from Canada

      Back around 1985, my family and I were driving back from Mexico, and we were in a very sparsely populated area. My uncle pulled over the car to look at the stars, and I have never seen the Milky Way look like that before or since - it did not just look cloudy, it looked like millions of tiny stars packed so close together as to create a cloudy look.
      As we drove away, I looked out the back window and saw a giant black cat at least the size of a mountain lion. Its eyes glowed emerald green.
      I'm pretty sure I saw a Black Panther/Jaguar, but of course no one believed me at the time. That face and those eyes were so beautiful that I can still picture them in my mind's eye.

      @@hexane8 Yes they are! That big male jaguar probably outweighs the mountain lions by 15-20% and have massive neck and shoulder muscles in comparison. In Africa we've witnessed lions doing the same with cheetahs.

      @@Mikel3564far more likely to killed south of the border than in the U.S. for as many people there are in the U.S. there is very few poaching animals. Most of the people doing the poaching weren’t born here. Certain people from the far east get busted poaching diamond back terrapins on the Jersey shore for “medicine”. When I see them creeping around the salt marshes while I’m fishing or crabbing I just post up until they realize I’m not gonna leave and they can’t dig up their nests. I called the fish and game on one guy who had two dozen baby turtles in a cooler. Not that I’m a snitch, I just love wildlife and don’t want people destroying our country.

    There are more than a few cougars in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I first saw tracks in February of 2018 before the Michigan DNR admitted to the public that they were even here. I have yet to get video of one on my trail cam. However I have no problem with bears and wolves. A friend of mine has a trail cam picture of a cougar that is about 5 or so mile North of my home. They are definitely here.

    I live on the coastline of Connecticut where mountain lions have been seen. I have seen many bobcats so I know what they look like. One morning I happened to be looking out a window of my house and saw a medium dog-sized cat with spots and a long tail walking along a fence line--trotting along as if he was perfectly comfortable with being there. I was unable to grab a camera, but I know it wasn't a bobcat because it was so lithe and long-tailed and had a longish neck and jawline. I haven't been able to satisfy myself that it was a young mountain lion because the spots were so pronounced and more leopard-like--not in quantity of spots but in their shape and coloring. I know that the range of large cats is very big, so I may never see it again and I don't know if I ever do want to see it. Congratulations to you, though. Thanks for affirming that these cats may be where we don't expect to see them.

  • @zoognosiswithjoy

    Incredible! The jaguar is doing what's called the Flehmen response. It's believed to open the entrance to the vomeronasal (AKA Jacobson's) organ and allow the detection of pheromones in the scat. Back when I worked with jaguars as a zookeeper, they would do this frequently around piles of scat or urine scent markings.
