After watching 20 hours of ecology videos, I have formed a political opinion.

The videos that inspired the meme, this guy talks about re-wilding the world.

Ok, so Jaguars were very present in Flordia until humans wiped them out. Not only are they a natural creature that could hunt invasive species such as Boas and Boars, but they would also fill an important role as a natural apex predator on land.
Nah, the Florida Capitol would be so much better than the Everglades

We can call it The Bortles Protocol

But the elderly people already lose so many toy dogs to alligators, how can they be expected to deal with big cats?? /j
We still had Florida panthers when I was a kid, but there were a lot of people killing them for trophies. Damn, wiki says there's only ~200 left

Yes, but do they hunt invasive species such as DeSantis?

The released Jaguars have been mating with the local cougars

We have mountain lions, even in NW Florida. I've seen a hulking male plenty close enough. Problem is people shoot them as a threat to their pets and livestock.

It’s interesting that you spelled “Florida” the wrong way in both the image and the caption text. Do you think that’s just how it’s spelled?

The video I referenced said there were only 20-30 left in the 70s, and with heavy support, they are up to 200.

Oh. I forgot how confusing the name is lol. When I read jaguar I think "spotted cat", Florida panthers are Puma not Panthera.
For what it's worth, I have seen a melanistic jaguar in Florida at a wildlife refuge

(e: Oh, wait, I was thinking of the political ecology, not making ecology political. I still agree with you, though. Perhaps slightly less enthusiastically.)

Honestly their way is better.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Apparently the North American Jaguar went extinct like 7000 years ago. So now it's just Florida Panthers (puma as you said) and bobcats, which I think might be lynx related? Not sure. I know I used to see those down in wekiwa near the springs/hiking trails.

Have you seen the latest jaguars? They're ugly as hell, maybe if we dump them in a swamp we'll have some kind of cosmic balance come back
