I almost titled this “Jaguar Spotted in Arizona,” then realized that jaguars are spotted no matter where they are. But seriously, folks, this is special. There have only been eight jaguars identified in the United States in the past 30 years, and only two in the past few years. Those jaguars are named El Jefe and Sombra, and their markings are well documented. Jaguars all have unique markings, and this one is new to the US. You can see all three jaguars in comparison images here.

Jason Miller runs trail cameras in the wilderness of southern Arizona. The jaguar was captured on video December 20th in a deep canyon in the Huachuca Mountains near the border with Mexico. If you just want to see the jaguar, he or she shows up at 3:30 in this video, but watch the whole thing because you’ll see a cougar, bears, a ringtail, and javelinas as well. -via Metafilter
