Hounds Locate Jaguar In Arizona

At first, when the mountain lion hunters in the hills of Southwest New Mexico saw that one of their dogs had its throat cut, they thought the attacker was a javelina, protecting its young. Instead, it turned out to be a jaguar, the third recent confirmed in-person sighting of the big cat in the Southwestern United States… Glenn saw the jaguar under a tree at the bottom of a hillside while chasing one of his dogs. The dog had gotten away from the rancher's lion-hunting party of seven people, including his daughter Kelly Kimbro. "It took me five minutes to ride down there, to get down the mountain," Glenn recalled last week in an interview. "It was pretty rough. I got to the bottom where the dogs were baying the jaguar, who was backed up under a cedar tree. At that point, I told them on the radio to get down there and help me. He had bitten three of the dogs." As for the dogs, all are now fine, with none having been bitten any deeper than into their flesh and hide. None sustained any broken bones. "I had a little veterinary bill but other than that they were fine"

Amazing.
