I know my Jags. Never owned a D as these are pretty rare. did have two E types, a 1961 150-S and a Mk VII. The ladies thought the Mark was a Rolls.

These are not your mild-dispositioned pumas.

Tell that to all the relatives of people that have been killed by mountain lions....

[Tijeras_Slim]

World's most famous tigrero, Sasha Siemel who hunted them in the Amazon with spears, bows, and occasionally, a gun. Not bad for a Latvian guy.

Yes.

Some are quite large and very strong.

Rare Jaguars Spotted in Arizona and Mexico

I thought jaguars were spotted all over.

‘These are not your mild-dispositioned pumas.’ Um, isn’t there a club called the Cheetah’ in Atlanta which specializes in ‘wild animals’ in skimpy dress? I doubt those are mild-dispositioned clinton PUMAs, either.

They are pretty rare because there was a factory fire that destroyed some of them, correct?

My uncle is a British car guy and used to have a Mark VII...that’s one big, beautiful car!

[Constitution Day]

Whew! There’s a man’s man.

Maybe they’re just eating the Mojados that American big cats don’t want to eat.

Thanks for the pics george. That is a beautiful animal.

They must be expanding their ranges from Mexico to the U.S.

George, did you read about the two cats spotted in Indiana? (www.outdoorpressroom.com). I would post the article but I am trying to resusitate my home computer (I’m on the laptop now). My computer has been crashing and I fear it is dead, along with a BUNCH of files I need and should have backed up but didn’t (GULP).

The fire was at the Browns Lane factory in February 1957. The D type racers and the road-going D known as the XK-SS (without the dorsal fin) were mostly wiped out. The D had a 3.4 with three Webers.

[george76]

Some believe that PETA dumped the cat there.

[Grammy]

Seeing one of those in the back yard would certainly scare the spit out of me! I have enough trouble dealing emotionally with the “mild mannered” cougar!

I remember back in the late 90's a hunting guide captured a photo of a jaguar in the Peloncillo Mountains of southeast Arizona. I remember seeing the pics -- beautiful animal.

This is a real no-man's land, so I'm not surprised another was found. There may be more there than we know.

[Tallguy]

I hope that kitty’s collar has a bell on it!

[jazusamo]

That’s a beautiful animal, George. Hopefully there are others and they’ll stay away from man.

Thanks for the ping.

Death in the Silent Places was a great book.
