Jaguar Photographed In Southern Arizona

The photos in 96 came from the Peloncillo Mountains on the on the Arizona/New mexico line and the Barbaquivari Mountains South and a little West of Tucson. I have seen big cat tracks in the Barbaquivaris before but the area is known for a large lion population.

Bulls' right, I know this only because I live in Warners neighborhood, and am familiar with the photo in question. Although, once again, Big Len is certainly in the right area

the Peloncillos are just a stones throw away from the bootheel country.Leonard is also correct, we certainly don't need anyone thinking there is, or ever was abreeding population of jag's roaming around southern Arizona. This is just the mana that the greenies drool over to close off prime hunting locals.Lots of locals in these parts whispered in private, that it would have been best if Warner would have just shot the damned thing and said nothing about it.

Jack has hunted Lions and Bears with hounds for almost 40 years. He's a true outdoors man and conservationist. I've known Jack for 17 years and I can assure you that he will be giving an excellent talk.

Thanks Encore,

The only thing missing from this thread was a picture. For a month or so, I have been thinking about requesting a picture for this story. Good Research Bro'!
 
Nah, fell into my mailbox, literally.


Err, i mean, SOMEone's mailbox, just in case the copyright police are listening in.

That photo and article came from Arizona Wildlife Views, available thru the Arizona Game & Fish Website. www.azgfd.com

Very reasonable subscription rates: i think it's 8bux for a year (which is 6 issues).
