Overview

Camera trapping reveals jaguar occurrences in high elevations of Chihuahua, suggesting critical habitat for conservation efforts.

Key Points

  • Jaguars were recorded at high elevations, contradicting previous literature focused on lower tropical environments.
  • The study found five new jaguar records and noted potential male collaborative interactions in the region.
  • The observational approach involved camera trapping across privately owned ranches and an ejido in northern Chihuahua.
  • These findings underscore the need for conservation models that incorporate high elevation habitats and their significance.
