Travel Experience | Big Cats Of Belize & Jaguar Trekking
Belize is home to the World’s only Jaguar Preserve, a 150 acre wildlife sanctuary. Visitors can tour Cockscomb Jaguar Preserve and its lush hiking trails, and even a relaxing tube ride down the South Stann Creek River. Spotting a Jaguar however is rare as they are nocturnal and very elusive. They are also solitary animals and only come together for a short time to breed. There are a number of other rainforest animals and birds to look out for. You may also be surprised to know there are four other species of large cats living in Belize --Margay, Mountain Lion, Ocelot, Jagarundi.
Book the Cockscomb Jaguar Preserve Tour for this once in a lifetime experience.

As they are nocturnal and very elusive, it is unlikely that you will see one, however, the adventure of looking is exciting. There are also a number of other rainforest animals and birds to look out for. Enjoy a large menu of lush hiking trails, and a relaxing tube ride down the South Stann Creek River.
