Rare footage from Belize. A jaguar swimming across Placencia Lagoon, as filmed by a boat captain. Cats are not always known for their swimming ability but jaguars are at home in streams, rivers, and lagoons like this. Placencia Lagoon is an important fish nursery, with rare Halophila seagrass and a mangrove forest surrounding a critical Antillean manatee hotspot. The Wildlife Conservation Society is supporting local efforts to get this lagoon under formal protected and managed status. | Wildlife
