Population
At best, only an estimated 15,000 jaguars remain in the wild. Bi-national conservation efforts have
been successful at protecting a small population of 80 to 120 cats in the remote mountains of
Sonora, Mexico bordering Arizona. This population is the largest of three known to remain in
Sonora, and is the last hope for recovery in the United States.
