"In an account rich in the science and cultural history of the jaguar, Alan Rabinowitz, one of the world's leading experts on big cats, shares his personal journey to save this species from its slide toward extinction. Rabinowitz transports readers to unexpected realms, from the deep paleo-history of the jaguar to cutting-edge DNA science and population genetics to the complex layers of human cultural, political, and social dynamics in jaguar territory. Along the way, he brings to life important new research for scientists, anthropologists, and animal lovers alike"--
