Jaguars

Jaguars are one of the more notorious "problem" animals of Belize. The Forest Department regularly receives calls from farmers complaining that jaguars are killing their livestock. As a result, the Forest Department has teamed up with Panthera and The Belize Zoo to create an information leaflet to help people prevent these problems from happening in the first place. Please click on one of the links below to read this leaflet in either English or Spanish.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. (Mahatma Gandhi)
