Jaguar Caught on Video in Arizona



I almost titled this "Jaguar Spotted in Arizona," then realized that jaguars are spotted no matter where they are. But seriously, folks, this is special. There have only been eight jaguars identified in the United States in the past 30 years, and only two in the past few years. Jaguars all have unique markings, and this one is new to the US. 

Jason Miller runs trail cameras in the wilderness of southern Arizona. The jaguar was captured on video in a deep canyon in the Huachuca Mountains near the border with Mexico. If you just want to see the jaguar, he/she shows up at 3:30 in this video, but watch the whole thing because you'll see a cougar, bears, a ringtail, and javelinas as well. (via Metafilter)

Jaguar ... Jag you are, not Jagwah.

You Americans and your constant mangling of English words ... and an Indian Indian word in this case (as opposed to an Indian word, as in Shy Ann, Pontiac, Toilet Paper ... oops, I mean Tee Pee).

War ter, Porsch er, .... coriander, not whatever you people call it, cilantro or something.

There are many more but I have just woken up and the coffee hasn't kicked in yet ... cough eee, not caw fee.

Sarcasm, Wheeled William ? Never heard of it, is it a capitol offence ?
