April Blogging A to Z Challenge 2026: J for Jaguars in Belize

 I went for a night hike and night tubing trip in the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary.

In this wilderness I did not find a Jaguar, but I did see signs of them. The signs being paw prints and scratch marks in trees and logs. In a remote area in a lagoon, we were treated to the aroma of a place a Jaguar had recently marked. On my trip the only place I saw a Jaguar was in the zoo.

April Blogging A to Z Challenge 2026: I for Iguanas in Belize

Above was a video of the Green Iguana Conservation Project. 

I was able to see both types of iguanas while I was in Belize the more common Green Iguana and the Black-Spiney Tailed Iguana. Video below is the Black Iguana.

The adventure in Belize was a great study in Herpetology. Herping in Belize is easy and fun!
