Rewilding: After 60-year absence it is time to reintroduce wild jaguars to US, say scientists Harry Cockburn © Provided by The Independent Jaguars are believed to have been in the Americas since the early pleistocene epoch - long before modern humans evolved. The ancestors of these big cats crossed the Beringian land bridge which once joined North America with Asia, and lived for millennia in the central mountains of Arizona and New Mexico, until the last one was shot dead in the 1960s. Now, more than 50 years later, scientists believe the time is ripe to reintroduce the species to the USA.
