There’s been another jaguar sighting in southern Arizona - the eighth different jaguar documented in the southwestern United States since 1996, according to wildlife officials.
A hobbyist wildlife videographer who posts trail camera footage online captured the image of a roaming jaguar late last month in the Huachuca Mountains near Tucson, the Arizona Republic reported.
A spokesman for the Arizona Game and Fish Department said the agency has authenticated Jason Miller’s footage and has confirmed this is a new jaguar to the US.
The animals were placed on the endangered species list in 1997 after being removed in 1980.
