A jaguar named Jatobazinho was released into a national park in Argentina Friday as part of a program to boost the numbers of this endangered species.
This was the eighth jaguar freed this year into Ibera National Park but the first adult male, said the environmental group Rewilding Argentina, which is behind the project.
Jatobazinho weighs about 90 kilos (200 pounds) and has brown fur peppered with black spots.
