Here's one spotted in my garage (hence my forum name). Not a lightweight, just your typical run of the mill 67 Series 1.

The Center for Biological Diversity released video of a wild jaguar caught on a trail cam in the Chiricahua Mountains. The jaguar appears to be the same one that was photographed in November 2016 in the Dos Cabezas Mountains, according to a news release.
Students at the Paolo Freire Freedom School in Tucson named the jaguar "Sombra."
Researchers said that these images taken seven months apart are good evidence that the animal has made southern Arizona its home.
The center said jaguars have been photographed in the United States for the past 20 years.
Three jaguars have been spotted in Arizona since 2015: El Jefe, Yo'oko, and now Sombra.
Researchers are hopeful that these sightings signal a recovery in the American southwest.
A fake or a plant, to justify an endangered species lawsuit against the wall? Or at least to flog Trump in the media for wall construction, speech or thought?
Very cool. Love jaguars.

We like the big cats in our neighborhood.
They eat the deer and save us a lot landscaping problems.
Burglars stay away from big cat areas at night.
There was a mountain lion sighting in Palo Alto a couple weeks ago in a densely populated residential area.
Then there was this good one a few months back: "Mountain lion snatches dog from Pescadero bedroom."
...and a couple weeks ago, "Puma kill puts Los Altos Hills residents on alert." Asia Schulhof spotted a deer carcass on her driveway and her first thought before heading to work was "How would she dispose of it before it started to reek?" That problem took care of itself when the cat came back to drag it into the bushes and have meals ready for the week.
Hello, I am Havier the Haguar. I like to hump!
All sorts of critters on the video. Those deer better be careful with the big cats wandering around.
There was a 10+ y.o. found dead in Arizona. Like 19 or so years ago. He was huge.
Sweet. Good lookin’ ride.
I love big cats-but I watch for mountain lion tracks when hiking-don’t want to meet one of those kitties in person...
There is a mountain lion living in the woods below the cliff across the river from the road I live on-I’ve seen the tracks by the river when hiking a few times-my neighbors and I see deer carcasses it has killed and dragged into brush to munch on sometimes, too-they don’t bother livestock out here-they really don’t like to go near humans, and there are plenty of deer, small game to eat-and the occasional loose pet cat or dog belonging to a snowbird in an RV or cabin on the river-who does not realize we have mountain lions here that consider pets take out/fast food...
El Jefe, Yo’oko, and now Sombra — where jaguars go to be spotted.
Cool!
Ha!
One must be cautious in lion areas, but it’s exciting. No need to spend thousands to go on safari to Africa (although that’s a gas too) - just take a hike in the Santa Monica Mountains!
Yeah...more jaguars roaming around. That is just what I need when hiking with my kids.
Oh! Let me guess. The wall can’t be built now because this endangered cat would surely die if there was a wall. Some liberal probably caught it down south and released it near the wall. Getting lots of pictures shortly thereafter.
Now THAT’S a Jaguar!
Nice. I still miss my 1974 .
That give me a chubby.
“another rare Jaguar”
Nice one, but its not spotted! :)
