Researchers have released stunning new footage of "El Bonito," a juvenile male jaguar, just three miles from the U.S.-Mexico border in Sonora, Mexico. This sighting suggests a female jaguar may live closer to the United States than previously believed, indicating potential breeding activity in the region.

El Bonito, like at least seven other male jaguars detected in the U.S. over the past 25 years, could eventually cross the border from Sonora. The last known female jaguar north of the border was killed in Arizona in 1963.

The video was captured by Ganesh Marin, a University of Arizona Ph.D. student and National Geographic Explorer, who leads this joint research project involving multiple institutions.

Sristi Kamal, Oregon Representative for Defenders of Wildlife, testified for House Bill 2548, which proposes a study to fund wildlife crossings and safe passage structures on Oregon highways. The goal is to reduce collisions and protect ecosystems.

Kamal emphasized the severe economic and ecological impacts of wildlife collisions, including property damage, human injury, and animal loss. Collisions hinder species' movement, food access, and genetic diversity. A neighboring state estimated $2.5 million in annual collision costs on just 12.5 miles of highway. She argued the study is crucial to finding solutions, demonstrating that passage benefits will far outweigh initial investment, preventing further losses. Kamal urged continued engagement in the Oregon Legislative session to support better wildlife policies.
