Jaguars in the Brazil-Argentina Green Corridor have climbed from about 40 in 2010 to at least 105, thanks to projects that pay neighbours to protect, not shoot, them.
After a 13% forest loss in Paraná drove cats to prey on cattle, women “Jaguar Crocheteers” turned big-cat crafts into new income, biologists built predator-proof corrals, and joint ranger-rancher patrols spread coexistence training, all of which have been instrumental in restoring local populations. #Nature #wildlife #environment #southamerica #brazil #argentina #news #endangered #animals #jaguar #Conservation
