## Jaguar spotted in binational corridor
Panthera spotted an adult male jaguar in the Guatemala-Honduras binational corridor for the second time this year.
## Second sighting this year
The jaguar was sighted in June and marks the first time in a decade that Panthera has observed the species on both sides of this border region.
## First time in decade
Panthera has observed jaguars on both sides of the border for the first time in a decade since 2017.
## Dr. Bárbara Escobar Anleu
Dr. Bárbara Escobar Anleu, Panthera's Guatemala country coordinator, said seeing jaguars in conservation areas is a motivation for their work.

> We are definitely very excited
## 120 camera traps deployed
Panthera placed at least 120 camera traps throughout the binational corridor since 2017 to monitor jaguars.
## Jaguar conservation status
Jaguars are classified as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List with 173,000 individuals in the wild.
## What this means for jaguars
The sightings provide hope that jaguars are still using the binational corridor despite threats.

> The camera trap images of the jaguars in both Honduras and Guatemala give us hope
## Key takeaway

Panthera spotted a jaguar in the Guatemala-Honduras binational corridor for the second time this year using 120 camera traps.
