History:
Though native to Central and South America, the jaguars ancestors originally migrated from a land bridge that connected Asia to North America. Jaguars once roamed over large areas in the extreme southwestern United States, but now very few jaguar are known to venture north of the Mexican border, and its overall numbers are declining. It is currently listed as near threatened in its remaining range. In many Pre-Colombian cultures, the jaguar is seen as a spiritual creature of immense power.
