The Project:
Project Wildcat - Predator Protection in Mexico

Objective

To establish a 35,000 acre wildlife corridor to protect jaguars in Sonora, Mexico.

Partners

GreaterGood.org, The Rainforest Site, Madrean Discovery Expeditions

There are only an estimated 80 jaguars left in Northern Sonora, Mexico. This endangered population is the last hope for the species' reintroduction into the US.

But due to a decrease of inhabitable land, jaguars, ocelots, and other predators have resorted to attacking and eating local livestock to survive. Over the past three years, 8% of the Sonora's jaguar population have been killed by ranchers who felt threatened by the natural predators. At this rate, the Sonoran jaguar population could be wiped out in just a few decades. We need your help to make sure that doesn't happen.

In order to save these majestic cats, GreaterGood.org is working with Primero Conservation to establish a 35,000 acre wildlife corridor strategically located just north of the existing Northern Jaguar Reserve in Sonora. We are working with the landowners of six connected and contiguous ranches who are agreeing to refrain from killing jaguars and other predators in exchange for training, supplies, and equipment to protect their cattle. Your donation would help us by offsetting cattle deaths with these incentives, these ranchers can justify no longer killing jaguars and other predators like mountain lions, ocelots, bears.
