I originally wrote Borderlands Jaguar while driving up to Tucson to do a presentation for the Center for Biological Diversity (http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/). I wrote it as I drove, something Ms. Mesquitey frowns on and she’s right, as my writing is totally illegible. Anyway, I sort of pulled it off, but here is a little better version…hmmm, well I don’t know about that, but here it is again.
The photo is of a male jaguar named Sombra and is courtesy of Russ McSpadden. It was taken by a trail cam in the Chiricahua Mountains. Yes, very close to home! Oh yeah.
