A video released Wednesday<span style="color: Red;">*</span>by Conservation CATalyst and the Center for Biological Diversity<span style="color: Red;">*</span>shows the only known wild jaguar<span style="color: Red;">*</span>in the United States.
The footage shows the jaguar roaming<span style="color: Red;">*</span>in the Santa Rita Mountains just outside Tucson, Ariz., and is part of an ongoing camera project that<span style="color: Red;">*</span>monitors mountain ranges for endangered jaguar and ocelot, the Center for Biological Diversity said in a statement.
“Studying these elusive cats anywhere is extremely difficult, but following the only known individual in the U.S. is especially challenging,” said Chris<span style="color: Red;">*</span>Bugbee, a biologist with Conservation CATalyst.<span style="color: Red;">*</span><span style="color: Red;">*</span>The cat has been named<span style="color: Red;">*</span>El Jefe<span style="color: Red;">*</span>by Tucson students.
Bugbee said they've spent three years tracking the mountains.
"These videos represent the peak of our efforts,” he added.
El Jefe is the only 'verified' jaguar in America<span style="color: Red;">*</span>since Macho B was euthanized in March 2009, according to the Center for Biological Diversity.
