Description
The ancient symbolic power, as well as the elusive beauty of the jaguar, triggers our imagination. Jaguars once roamed across Arizona but were extirpated nearly one hundred years ago. However, these wild cats have recently been photographed on Arizona soil, starting a flurry of activity and debate. In this Lockbox lesson, students will explore the mystery and myth associated with jaguars and the role of a conservationist biologist.Duration
