The Jaguar, the only “roaring” cat in North America, once roamed as far north as the Grand Canyon. By the 1900’s, the jaguar had largely disappeared from the United States. Development and hunting were the main reasons for the animal’s loss. Currently the Jaguar Conservation Team (JAGCT) is working to bring back this amazing animal. Wildlife management in Arizona began in 1881, the first regulatory laws followed in 1887.

Flat Bobby read some articles on the Internet and there have been sightings of Jaguars in Arizona again! He thinks it is a gorgeous animal and hopes people will leave it alone.
