We are beyond excited to announce the arrival of jaguar Filly! She arrived from the Belize Zoo the evening of January 23. She is adjusting well, eating and seems comfortable with her care team.

Filly is estimated to be between 6-7 years old. She arrived at the Belize Zoo in 2019 after being rescued as part of the Human Jaguar Conflict Program. Conflict jaguars are nearly always jaguars unable to compete successfully for food and territory. Filly was deemed non-releasable and will play an important role in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Jaguar Species Survival Plan® (SSP).

We have a longstanding conservation partnership with Belize Zoo, dating back to the 1980s. Our male jaguar, Frankie, is the son of Pat, who arrived from the Belize Zoo in 2008 and was also a conflict jaguar.

Filly is currently in a quarantine period at the Animal Health Center before being moved to her habitat. Follow along for Filly updates!
