How to Unite the World's Last Jaguars​ Through a Corridor | Back from the Brink

↠ Check out our 'Back from the Brink' series for more incredible wildlife conservation stories: • Back from the Brink
The jaguar is the third-largest cat in the world, and the largest big cat to live in Latin America. But its natural range - spanning 18 countries - has been drastically reduced, leaving less than 50% across fragmented pockets. With the species’ genetic diversity and very survival at risk, conservationists started work on the Jaguar Corridor to link jaguar clans to one another.
But how can human landscapes be made safe for wild cats? One innovative organization is leading the way. 👉🏽 Panthera works in 11 of the 18 jaguar range states to protect this magnificent species. You can find out more about Panthera here: panthera.org/ If you want to support their work, you can donate to their Wild Cats fundraiser: panthera.org/support/donate-w...

Being the apex predator, the jaguar must be protected at all costs. I am relieved by the news of all the conservation efforts I love jaguars . Love yall 💓 💗 Thanks terramatter

[@terramater]

Thats’s the spirit! Let’s protect the last remaining jaguars! 💪🏽🐆

[@stevebennett9839]

Jaguars r so beautiful. It's such a shame that humans have ruined their populations plus countless other animals just for vanity. Thank you Terra Mater for making this video entertaining and educational at the same time.

[@alejandroelluxray5298]

I fucking hate vanity

[@terramater]

Thanks for watching & commenting, Steve! You‘re absolutely right, Jaguars are beautiful and they need to protected! So let‘s do this! 🐆

[@indian1351]

Wildlife corridors need of the hour for all the wildlife to survive in this hostile world. To protect wildlife we need to create safe habitat and to connect these different habitat we need to create wildlife corridors. Education to the local community is also very importent. The panthera team is doing great job...big salute to them.

[@lenafromterramater3690]

That is so true! Spreading the word and raising awareness is a big part in helping organizations like this one to succeed! Kudos to them! Thank you for your kind words AJ! 🐆

[@earthling_parth]

This is awesome. Hold the Jaguars survive our phase of greed and immaturity with the power we have over the world.

[@lenafromterramater3690]

Great to hear! Yes we hope so too 🐆

[@Doktracy]

This is one reason that I’m so against a solid wall on the border, it prevents wildlife from traveling where they need to go.

[@ariw9405]

glad to see this ; we require more such actions to protect nature

[@fabianm.4217]

Awesome! I hope to be one of the leading pushers in nature conservation in the US one day. A simple habit I try to apply in regular day to day life is leaving a place better than how I found it (restroom, dining table, workplace), I feel like we should use this habit with nature as well :)

[@terramater]

What a great plan! We keep our fingers crossed, that you reach that amazing goals! Adapting your everyday habits is a great way to start making planet earth a better place. Keep it up! 👏🏽

Hi friends 👋🏽, have you ever heard of the Jaguar corridor before? Or do you know any other wildlife corridor? Let us know your thoughts!​ 🐆 Panthera's team is doing a great job in Jaguar conservation.

This would be a great idea. And it's going to save the third biggest cat in the world which is fantastic.

[@terramater]

We hope that too! 🤞🏽

[@pl3459]

Love Jaguars, my favorite big cat. Very upsetting what human's destruction of the eco system leads to. Hopefully we can help the jaguars and all animals and the eco system.

[@terramater]

We love them too, they‘re just great! Together we can make a difference! 🐆💫

[@farisahmadf_]

I think that's the same problem with our javanese leopard, fragmented habibat. It almost impossible to create the same corridors in heavily populated Java

[@RK-cj4oc]

It is possible. But it would require the dutch nature bridges and constant maintinance.

[@griffini19]

Thank you and good luck

[@afrz4454]

The only issue is… Latinoamerican politicians Like in Mexico the train they are building in the Mayan riviera threatens the second largest jungle after the Amazon in the continents.

maybe they should try forming a jaguar meetup group.

Maybe! 😂

[@lawrencebrown8161]

Why would worldwide wrestling federation be interested in jaguars?

[@NatureOfRealityRadio]

Excuse me, but aren't there still NORTH AMERICAN JAGUARS still around?

[@lynnjacobs9885]

A story about the decline of jaguars is misleading and inadequate without a discussion of their greatest detriment -- ranching. Stockmen have killed jaguars for hundreds of years, and their livestock and ranching practices have had ruined jaguar habitat.

[@terramater]

True that! That’s why we mentioned farming as one of the main threats.

[@lynnjacobs9885]

@@terramater True, but when most people hear the word "farming" they think of growing crops, not grazing livestock on the open land, which affects many times more land area than farming. And few farmers intentionally kill jaguars, as do a high percentage of ranchers. Historically and to this day, ranching has been by far the biggest single detriment to jaguars. But thank you for your response, and for caring about jaguars.

[@falanajerido875]

Farmer received financial coverage Now they won't kill them kruger national Park need to do the same let the farmer received financial coverage for there lost

[@biokosmos]

unluckly it is not possible, because the genetic pool will be even more poor.. We NEED to renstaure huge zone of "wild" Nature

[@antoniopacelli]

Why there's more social interest in making Jaguars mate with others Jaguar than unifying Humankind? I ' m Lesser than a macular Big Cats.. At least in Camps people were together with each other... By now "Divide et impera" seems to be the new Dominant Order.
