Boliva Land of the Jaguar


Boliva, The home of the beautiful Jaguar. Magnificent Animals. Elusive but ever present.

Using technology first adapted to identify tigers by stripe patterns, WCS conservationists have identified 19 individual jaguars by spot patterns in the rain forests of Bolivia, a record number for a single camera trap survey in the country.  The animals were identified from a total of 975 photographs, a record number of images due to the use of digital cameras as opposed to camera traps that use film.

The images come from the Alto Madidi and Alto Heath, a region at the headwaters of the Madidi and Heath Rivers inside Bolivia’s outstanding Madidi National Park. The survey also included Ixiamas Municipal Reserve, created following a previous WCS survey in 2004 along the Madidi River, which revealed a high abundance of jaguars and other species such as white-lipped peccaries, spider monkeys, and giant otters.

La Paz - Color Galore.



In the Tourist District there are Adventure Companies that give Tourists thrills and spills perhaps on the Bolivian Death Road Cycling experience. There are shops with beautiful leathers, woven blankets and yes even Jewelry. Most of the Jewelry is Tourism driven and much is factory fabricated. You need to ask where the special highly skilled Bolivian Jewelry makers are located. Custom made products are a little harder to source.
